Shamrock® Linden
The Shamrock® Linden, Tilia cordata 'Baileyi', is a vigorous grower that has a broad conical form. The open branching creates a less dense shade. It displays fragrant yellow flowers in summer. The shiny dark green foliage develops a yellowish-green fall color. It requires full sun to light shade and prefers moist, deep, fertile, well drained soils. This Linden is tolerant of difficult growing sites and soils, is urban and pollution tolerant. It attracts bees when in bloom. It is best used for farmstead windbreaks, and park trees in open landscape areas because of its large size and spreading root system. ... details
Lacebark Elm The species is known for quick growth, particularly if planted in fertile, well drained soils. The dark green, oval leaves of the lacebark elm vary from 3/4 to 2 1/2 inches in length. Most lacebark elms lose their leaves late in the fall. The bark of this elm is perhaps its finest feature. The grey bark begins to exfoliate or peel off in small patches as the trunk matures resulting in an interesting combination of mottled colors beneath, including green, gray, orange and brown. |
