Hey all. Do anyone know what this is? There's no tag and worker there thought it was an elm. But the "veins" on the leaves don't look consistent to any elm to me. But I might as well be wrong since I don't have any elm, yet. Ailing from chlorosis but that can be remedied easily enough I think...

My cousin just bought a house that has this trees in his yard. My guest is trifoliate orange. There's no fruits or flowers on it at the moment. But it has long dangerous thorns though lol I can have him send me more pics if needed. Thanks in advance!

Around Nov of 2019 there was an ad on Craigslist for this JBP and it was really cheap. But I knew the catch was its health though. From the pics, the needles was all yellowy and stuff. I was like, what the heck, lets try and save this thing since the bark was pretty awesome! Once I got there...

Hello all. My sister have to redo water gutter and other stuff for better water channeling if that's what it's called. And an excuse for herself, she's getting rid of all the plants lining the front as well. She never liked them. But she will be having it done sometime in early summer...

Are they really that expensive?

Hi all! I'm kinda stumped as to what this might be. At first I thought it might be some sort of fruit tree but they're all alternate pattern. Then I thought it might be something like a Burning Bush but the stems have no wings and serrations are larger too. Can anyone id this?

Hey ya'll, I went to a not so local nursery to see if they have any sales going on but oddly enough they did not lol. Didn't want to go home empty handed I purchased a dwarf pom at a steal. They stole a whole 40 bux right from my pocket! And I let them :confused:. This is to see how/if I can...

This place is about to clear out some land and I saw a couple of these. Are they worth the effort and most likely failure this late in the collection window?

Anyone? This sprouted on the rootball edge of my collected big Yew. Was in the crappy soil too. Yanked it out, broke tap root in half in the process. Stuck it in better soil and it now have two leaves. Tell me this at least make nice flowers! Thanks :)

Hey nuts. Been awhile since I posted anything but I'm gonna start updating my threads soon since them buggers woke up (except the Vitex). But before I do, I need to get off my ass and start a thread on this little guy. Believe it or not, I found this Yew on Craigslist in the free section :D! The...

Picked up this taperless Hornbeam yesterday from a guy semi local. He has another one that spoke to me. That one has pretty good taper and root spread was pretty even too. I might take that one later this year too lol! This one stands at around 12" from soil to top of chop. He collected the...

Ginkgo! The weirdos of trees :p. Or is it deciduous broad leaf conifer? The other day I just happened to type "bonsai" on craigslist just for the hell of it. And came across an ad of a guy wanting to thin out his collection to make room for more o_O?! Among other trees, he has this Ginkgo...

Some of might remember this stump I purchased from Brian, AKA Adam:p, last year. Most of you won't. When I got it earlier this year, my excitement got the better of my rational judgment. Went ahead with total bareroot and chopped the bottom flat :eek:. I should have waited till next year for...

Feb. was a really mild month this year, so I thought what the heck, let's get at them gojis in the yard. It was the spur of the moment thing even thought I knew I should have waited. Buds were popping and about to leaf out so I went ahead and grabbed the trusty spade and my bare two hands. This...

Was walking the "urban jungle" last week and came across some bushes with some interesting trunks and leaves looks to be evergreen? Or maybe it's breaking dormancy? From looking at the outside, it appears the owner was trying to eradicate the entire lot! I think there's a good chance I can...

Ummm this is my first year venturing into the yard after 3 yrs of living in the house:confused:. I noticed a couple "vines" growing along the rear fence and thought it was some sort of weeds with nice little purple flowers lol. Then today I finally realize there are fruits/berries on these...

And I hope yew like me too. Found out this young man will be moving sometimes in the future and needed to unload his collection of mostly pre bonsai. And he is just 10min from me! Who knew! Saw this English Yew and thought I need to have it. Looks so good I can just eat it;) I read they are...

Hey nutters! I bought this pretty sad Hinoki from a soon-to-retire landscaper for $25. It looks really weak and most of the lower branches already died off. He neglected it for like 3-4 months. The pot was bone try. Brought it home and gave it a good watering. Now I've read that Hinoki (Cypress...

After the big (to me) purchase of the Trident from Mr. Stickman himself, I thought I was done since the growing season is drawing to an end. Then I came across a nursery, not so local, from me. And they grow and sell only plants native to the east coast, for sustaining the local wildlife. Figure...

So I was running some errands and was waiting for my boss at Lowe's and had time to snoop around for discounts. Stumble on this tree/bush and thought the trunk and nebary to be pretty decent to start something. After reading up a bit on it at work. Found them to be quite hardy and can withstand...

I don't see many Ginko showing around here. Went to a bonsai enthusiast that happens to have a small home business selling Bonsai and stuff and saw this nice Ginko tree. Think he said about 40 or 50 yrs old. hollow trunk too! Ask how much and he did not want to let it go, so 2k was the price...

Hello fellow nut-head. I bought two, yes two wisteria from Homie De a month ago and I noticed one has a reddish type color on new growth. The other one is plain light green. I did not fertilize it. Just plain ole water, both watered same time and placed at same place in the yard. I would assume...

First let me apologize for the large and crappy pics. I don't know how to post thumbnails that enlarge when selected :( Went to a local nursery to pick up this paperbark maple today and the nursery dude threw in a seedling as well to sweeten the deal. The tree itself isn't in the best of shape...

Hi all. I got a Crape Myrtle stump from Florida earlier this year. When I first got it in late Feb. I planted it in dirt for about 1 month but the tiny red buds didn't move at all. Then I took out the stump and chop/sawed all the large roots off. Pretty much sawed it horizontally till bottom is...

I just noticed these orange spots on some of my apple tree. It looks kinda bumpy from the surface but I cannot rub it out. I actually pinched some out from the leaves. Nothing on underside thought. And some of the leaves have gotten yellow blotches and falling off as well. I just started...
