Many of these trees are commonly seen in our woodlands and are popular landscape trees.  Their use helps create a “sense of place” in the garden.

These trees make beautiful additions to a garden offering interest throughout the seasons.  They often are small in stature and are easily used in a number of landscape settings.   Birds and other wildlife make use of their flowers, fruit and structure for food and shelter to further add to the landscape intrigue.
