Plant of the Month

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

In honor of Arbor day, April 24, 2009 we are featuring the Skyline Locust as our plant of the month.  This improved variety does not have the thorns commonly associated with Locusts, are native so they adapt well to our area, and are a very attractive tree. Furthermore leaf clean up in the fall is a breeze; the tiny leaflets on this tree are very easy to collect.

Arbor Day is a nationally-celebrated observance that encourages tree planting and care.  

You can celebrate Arbor Day with your family by planting a tree. It is an act of optimism and kindness, a labor of love and a commitment to stewardship.  

Here is a great website that can give you much more information and celebration ideas.
