Comments (1)The plant markers have been spoken for. I still have lots of plants to trade (Please see my trade list). So if anyone else is interested in my plants, let me know. Thank you!...See MoreDon't forget your maple and birch trees are "fruit" trees too
Comments (3)I'm tempted, but I have too many kitchen things going all the time as it is! My little passions for this and that (making jam, bread, beer, pasta, tortillas ... ) take up a lot of space already. I remember your earlier thread, and we have five very large maples (silvers and sycamore maples, i.e. acer psuedoplatanus) and I'm sure we could get a couple of gallons at least, but I'd best resist. Thanks for the link, though. It's interesting....See MoreRare Or Unusual Trees
Comments (11)hi forrest, i'm not in georgia but not far from columbus. chionanthus pygmaeus is probably the rarest one i have. sources say native to only certain areas of the florida panhandle and grows to about 6' tall. i got it from mail order natives in florida a few years ago and notice that she does not offer it anymore. also trying gordonia lasianthus (loblolly bay) but it was struggling where i planted it and i have moved it into a container to nurse it along. know anything about that one and what kind of site it would like? i read it can take seasonally wet (hence the term "loblolly") but it almost died when i planted it in a place like that. halesia diptera 'magniflora' is coming along well but has yet to flower for me. could be in too much shade (deciduous woods). magnolia asheii and macrophylla are still small but appear to be settling in and healthy. i love those northern conifers, too, esp. the blue and gold forms, but it is basically too hot here for most of them. i do have a norway spruce that is quite large. started with a b&b plant for a christmas tree in the early '90's and it is about 12' tall now....See MoreHelp > Tree Identification > Sugar Maple Tree??
Comments (3)It's hard for me to tell from that distance. Can you take a closer photo of the leaf shape? You may be able to ID it yourself by googling images of "Norway maple vs. Sugar maple" or similar. http://oregonstate.edu/dept/ldplants/images/acpl-sa2.jpg http://homepage2.nifty.com/chigyoraku/worldleaf1.jpeg...See Morefrankielynnsie
