Greetings! 

 

Summertime is fast approaching.   With the hotter weather, be sure to monitor your new trees and shrubs.  Water them thoroughly once a week, twice a week during extreme heat and drought.  Please call us at 815-338-7442 if you have any questions or concerns. 
 
Take time to enjoy your gardens and the work you've put into them.  Share a photo on Facebook - we love to see how your trees are thriving. 
 
We're getting to the end of the spring planting season.  If you're looking for big trees, you're welcome to come out and tag for fall digging.  Small trees and shrubs in containers can still be tucked into your garden areas; you just need to be more vigilant with watering as summer progresses. 
 

 Great Conifers

 

So many trees are looking great at the nursery and farm.  Our display by the office highlights different textures and colors.
