     Newest Trees 
    Powder Keg Sugar Maple

    Acer saccharum 'Whit XLIX'
    An explosion of fall colour awaits! Starting with dark lush green foliage, this sugar maple bursts into bright fiery reds and oranges in the fall.  Beginning at the top and progressing slowly downward, shades of yellow and light orange progressed to dark oranges and reds. Depending on the season, this show might continue for three weeks or longer.  A great nativar that grows 50 ft. tall and 40 ft. wide. Noted as a superior tree that stands up to summer heat and drought better then the species, making it perfect for shading a hot dry yard.

    Tickle Creek Birch

    Betula jacquemontii 'Tickle Creek'
    Delicate lacey green leaves tickle the air on weeping branches. Cinnamon stems mature to a smooth bright white bark to stand out in the garden. Growing 6 inches a year to 6 ft. tall and 4 ft. wide, this birch is a beautiful specimen to add to the yard. Very rare tree that evokes a look like a weeping Japanese maple, but far hardier.

    Golden Falls Redbud

    Cercis canadensis 'Golden Falls'
    Perfect for small gardens, this small weeping tree has several seasons of interest. Pale pink blossoms erupt from the bark in spring before the leaves emerge, with a strong weeping form that is stunning. The foliage buds with an orange tinge and is an all season yellow. Grows best where it can be slightly shaded during the heat of the day, it will grow to 8 to 10 feet tall by 4' wide on most well drained soils. As with all redbuds, it is best sited protected from exposure to northwest winter winds.

    Yvonne Ginkgo

    Ginkgo biloba 'Yvonne'
    Recently found and developed by an Ontario grower, this is one of the cutest varieties of ginkgo available! Extremely unique and rare, it has perhaps the smallest fans of foliage ever but on a shrubby habit. Growing in sun to only 8-10 ft. in 10 years, its green leaves turn bright golden yellow to end the season. A male tree, it is an ideal accent for a charming garden!

    Moonglow Sweetbay Magnolia

    Magnolia virginiana 'Moonglow'
    Stunning lustrous dark green leaves back large fragrant creamy white flowers of this unique magnolia in late spring/early summer. Growing 30ft. tall and 15ft. wide in an upright form, this beauty is a statement in the yard. Plant in rich well drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Unlike some magnolias, it will tolerate some moist soil conditions.

    Rancho Cherry

    Prunus sargentii 'Rancho'
    In spring, these wonderful trees produce a mass of large pretty single pink flowers that are complemented by the reddish-brown new foliage. The early fall transforms the luscious green foliage into vibrant shades of yellow, red, oranges, and maroons. The tree grows 20-25 feet tall by 14 feet wide, and does best in full sun with soil that is not heavy clay.  One of the hardiest of all flowering cherries.

    Miyako Flowering Cherry

    Prunus serrulata 'Shogetsu' (Oku Miyako)
    'Blushing Bride' or 'Moonlight on Pines' is a stunning Japanese flowering cherry. With large double white flowers that start as delicate pink buds and hang in clusters as they open in May for a stunning show. It grows to 25ft. tall and wide, and this ornamental tree is an award winner with notable orange fall colour too.  Careful site selection is important with this tree - it should be limited to a protected spot and a well-drained (preferably non-clay like) soil conditions.

    Shirofugen Ornamental Cherry

    Prunus serrulata 'Shirofugen'
    Recipient of the Award of Garden Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society - and with good reason. Large pink buds open to fully double white blooms with 20-30 petals each! If that wasn't showy enough, the blooms change colour to pink again before they fall. Growing 30ft. tall and wide this stunning tree makes for a great show piece in the garden. Best sited in a protected location.

    Palisade American Hornbeam

    Quercus x jackiana ‘Jefmir’
    Lush glossy green leaves turn a lovely golden yellow in the fall, then russet in winter where they stay on for the season. It's strong upright pyramidal habit makes it a beautiful shade tree for the home. Grows 40 ft. tall and 30' feet wide. It does best in full sun, is drought tolerant, with few pests.

    Olympic Flame Mountain Ash

    Sorbus 'Olympic Flame'
    This compact tree is reminicent of an Olympic flame in the fall when it's leaves burst into bronze, scarlet, and gold! Clusters of creamy white flowers show in spring, and are followed by orange-red berries that provide winter interest as they persist through the colder months. Growing 30ft. tall and 20ft. wide this is a lovely tree for smaller yards, and mountain ash are amongst the most drought tolerant trees available. Truly a winner!

    Harvest Gold Linden

    Tilia mongolica 'Harvest Gold'
    Faster growing then many Linden varieties, this tree has a strong pyramidal form, glossy green leaves and gets it's name from the beautiful golden yellow show of leaves that turn in the autumn. It is known for it's resistance to Japanese beetle and leaft spot, and the bark on the tree 'peels' a bit like birch, giving it some winter interest too.  It will grow to 40 feet tall by 30 feet wide in most soil conditions in full sun to partial shade.  An excellent shade tree for urban conditions.
