WITH OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.

Our bulk materials are sold by the “cubic yard.” Here’s how to determine how
much you need to order. Start by measuring in feet:
LENGTH x WIDTH = AREA
DIVIDE that by 27
This gives you the amount of material to cover the area 12” deep.
DIVIDE THIS NUMBER to get to the thickness you want.
Example:
540 square feet of garden space works out to 5 yards at 3” deep.
(540 divided by 27 equals 20; divide by 4; equals 5). One yard covers 80 sq ft 4”
deep or 100 sq ft 3” deep.
You’ll need at least 3”-4” deep for bark to keep the plants protected and to keep
the weeds away.
You’ll need at least 2” deep of topsoil Topsoil (for lawns) and Compost and Planting
Mix (for gardens) You can plant in topsoil or planting mix; compost is for mixing into
existing soil.
If you have an open-bed pickup truck or trailer (or friend with one that owes you a
favor) we can load our materials into your truck or trailer. SUVs are not trucks.
Sorry, we can’t do our bulk materials by bushel or bags.
Other pre-bagged materials are available too.
***When you spread the bark, don’t let the bark touch the woody stems or
tree trunks***

“Where are all your cats?”
Is a common question of many customers (and
especially kids) when they stop in.
Usually you’ll find our cats somewhere in the
greenhouse—in baskets on the counter,
sauntering through like they own the place...or
looking for food!
Currently, we have two cats. COSMO is a big
furry gray cat with huge eyes, furry paws, even on
the bottom (so he’s rarely on the counter as he
slides off easily) and a lovely attitude,
especially when there are kids and straw bales
involved. GRACIE is a sweet quick little tiger girl
(Cosmo’s sister) who can be wild and independent
or a total affection junkie, depending on her
mood that day. She’s our resident counter cat,
has a great purr, and appreciates any and all
attention. The cats will be 9 years old this year.
The cats would like to remind everyone to
remember your pets (especially dogs, as the cats
believe they are perfect) when you landscape
(“It’s My Yard Too!”) and leave room for digging,
places to explore, shrubs and trees for shade, and
which plants can handle dog full-body contact
(dwarf lilacs) and which could break during enthusiastic ball-chasing (laceleaf Japanese maples),
so consider the canine traffic patterns and plant
accordingly. The cats reminded me that catnip is
expected, and appreciated, as are trees to climb
and bird-attracting plants (just for watching, of course!)
Your friendly, well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome here—please let us know before
you take them out of the car and they must be on-leash at all times and you are
responsible for any clean-up…we’ll loan you a shovel!
To all our cherished nursery animals, including lots of dear kitties, a flock of ducks from the Flower Show, and of
course Concolor, Phoenix, and Holly; Tulip, Thyme and Violet; we wish you all sweet rest at the Rainbow Bridge.

“Where do your trees come from?” is a question lots of
customers ask...and if they’re looking at our shade trees or
ornamental trees, the answer is usually “At our tree farm in
Parma, Michigan.” (the next question is “Where is Parma?”)
Our tree farm in Parma, just west
of Jackson off I-94 is 56-acres of shade and
ornamental trees. We bought the tree farm in
2003, and trees have been grown on this farm
since the 1960s.
By allowing our trees to “spend their formative
years in Michigan” our trees are well-adjusted to
Michigan weather and Michigan soil. Our Parma
tree farm is wholesale-only, and not open to our retail customers.
You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before
you and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.

What’s So Important about
MICHIGAN-GROWN TREES?
Trees always grow better when planted in
similar soils and climate conditions.
Michigan-grown trees have shorter
commutes than other trees! Spend your
Michigan-earned dollars on locally grown
trees. Many of our trees and shrubs have
spent their whole lives in Michigan!
ROOT FOR THE HOME TEAM!
Michigan STATE grown trees and shrubs!

GROUND OUT STUMPS do not equal “ready to plant” areas!
We can’t plant over a stump. My guys are incredible, but not super-human…
WHAT’S THE PROBLEM? There are LOTS of roots that remain after a tree
stump has been ground out, and as those roots decompose, they release a methane gas...and new tree roots HATE methane gas, to the point it can kill your
new tree.
HOW CLOSE CAN YOU PLANT? Depending on the size of the stump removed,
your new tree will need to be at least 8ft to 10ft away from the stump.
WHAT IF THAT’S THE ONLY PLACE? So please know that we all understand the concept of “the
perfect place for a tree” and the situations of small yards and fewer places to plant...really we do!
So PLEASE TELL US! if there is a stump involved—even from a year ago or more. Again, my superhero planting guys can’t plant over stumps, can’t remove them, and have to bring the tree back until
the stump is removed...and this frustrates you, frustrates them, and slows down everything!
AND WHILE WE’RE ON THE SUBJECT OF PLANTING TREES… Please know the more flexible you
can be with when we plant, the faster your tree can be planted. Average time is at least one week,
and can be up to three weeks during peak times. Bad weather changes planting schedules too.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO
PLANT A TREE?
Will that 2" ginkgo tree fit in my minivan?
How about that 5ft spruce in my SUV?
What about the 6ft Japanese Maple?
Can it go on TOP of my car like my
Local delivery charges range from $50
to $120, based on the largest tree
purchased. The delivery charge is a
single charge.

Nope.
Our rule is “if it takes a MACHINE to
Planting charges are $40 per caliper

$10 per foot for multi-stem trees and
evergreens.
lift it, it takes an open-bed PICK-UP
or TRAILER to take it away.”
Root balls are heavy! Check these
approximate weights…

2.5” caliper tree 450+ lbs
3” caliper tree

5ft evergreen
300+ lbs
We can just deliver, which is placing
the tree in your driveway.
We can also deliver and take it to the
hole you have dug, for an
extra $20 per tree.
ANYTHING ELSE?
State law requires that WE call MissDig for underground utility marking. This takes 3-5
business days. We are not responsible for irrigation system damage; however, irrigation
insurance is $10 per tree. Please mark the tree planting spot with our flag as soon as
possible after purchasing, let us know if there are gates, low hanging wires, narrow
driveways, wild dogs in the backyard, alligators in the pond, or anything else that might
make planting more challenging.
WE WILL CALL YOU TO CONFIRM THE DAY BEFORE WE COME TO PLANT.

With so many new plants being
“created” every year, we can’t
stock everything! If you have a
favorite you didn’t see in the
catalog, ASK US! Quite often we
can order or just pick up “one or

likely be higher than similar
varieties listed in the catalog.

Botanical names can be a bit confusing. Think of them as the “official” name, and the
common name as more of a “nickname.” There are many nicknames, but only one
official name. Happily, our perennials are grouped by color, rather than by name at the
nursery! So don’t fear the botanical names! Divide the names into 2 and 3-letter
groups, and give pronunciation a try! (“agastache” is “a-ga-sta-che” see how easy?)

Life in a pot isn’t easy for a plant.
PT SUN X

Everything is growing, but there’s
no where to grow, so their roots
start spiraling around in circles.
This is known as “root bound” or
“root lock.” The only way to
correct this is to rip and tear the
roots before you plant the plant,
which shocks the plant
(understandably), and causes
unhappy plants.

About three years ago, we started
using a spray on the inside of our
pots, called MicroKote. It’s a
blend of iron, copper, magnesium,
manganese, zinc and
calcium, which are all nutrients
plants need for growth and
development.

The plants develop a fibrous root
structure, they don’t let their roots
circle around; the roots grow
toward the edges of the plant
(where the nutrients are—smart
roots!) and are healthier overall.

STEP ONE: HOW DEEP?
Dig the hole no deeper than the root ball and at least 4” - 8” wider than
the root ball. As you dig, watch the layers of soil you encounter, noting
changes in color or texture. If you have 1” or less “topsoil” (darker
color than the soil deeper down) plant the tree so that 3”-4” of the
root ball is ABOVE the ground. When in doubt, PLANT HIGH!
STEP TWO: HOW WIDE?
Use your shovel as a tape measure. Lay the shovel across the top of the
root ball; remember the spot on the shovel and measure the hole as you
go. Do the same thing for the depth by holding the shovel next to the
root ball; note the top and subtract 3” - 4”.
STEP THREE: INTO THE HOLE!
If this is a large tree, GET HELP! One person to hold the “head” (top)
of the tree while the other person rolls the tree into the hole. When
the root ball enters the hole, push up on the head so the root ball doesn’t
go into the hole sideways. Don’t forget to untie the top branches of the
tall trees first!!
STEP FOUR: STRAIGHTEN AND BACKFILL
Tie some ribbon on the best side before it goes into the hole. If you need
to rotate, grab the wire or rope on the root ball and turn carefully.
Once the tree is straight, use the existing soil to back fill the hole. fill it up
half way; add water; then mix topsoil, compost, peat or pine bark
with the remaining soil in the upper 4” - 6” of the hole. DO NOT
REMOVE THE WIRE BASKET OR BIODEGRADABLE TWINE OR
BURLAP FROM THE ROOT BALL!! Remove any nylon twine from
around the trunk.
STEP FIVE: BUILD A WATERING RING
Build a ridge 4”-6” out and around the edge of the root ball, at the
same level or slightly higher than the tree. Tamp the soil firm and
smooth.
STEP SIX: WATER WATER WATER!!
The easiest way to water your new tree is buy a GATOR BAG! They
zip on your tree, hold 20 gallons of water, and slowly water the tree
right where it needs it! Fill the GATOR BAG twice a week and your tree
will love you! Otherwise, use our secret code is 20-20-2: 20% hose
volume, for 20 minutes, 2 times a week for the first growing season and
during dry periods. If it gets really hot and dry, water 3 times a week.
YOUR LAWN SPRINKLERS WILL NOT SUPPLY ENOUGH WATER
FOR TREES OR SHRUBS!

If you need to block neighbors, streets, buildings, etc...consider what time of year the view
bothers you the most, how tall the plant has to
eventually be; and how much room you have
for the plant’s mature size.
Sun exposure (hours and intensity) and wind
exposure (direction and blocking) are important in plant selection. Pick the right plant
and plant it in the right place and it will
thrive.
Consider your house color, existing plants and
favorite colors. Every plant has good and bad
attributes, and we’ll do our best to find great
matches to your requests!
There are SO MANY new plants and they can
be wonderful...or not! Give us a chance to
research the plant, and we’ll find it, or find
something similar that might even be better!
We can refer you to companies who will build
your new walkways and patios AND then
help you choose plants that will
complement and enhance your gardens!
If you give us a range of how much you can
spend on your planting project, we’ll do our
best to make it happen. Be realistic; remember how much new appliances can cost; and
look at your plants as an investment.
Ours are better. We grew most of them
ourselves, or know the grower who did. And
the person selling you the plant wasn’t selling
plumbing fixtures last week either!

Neighbor issues, both good and bad, have given us a
lot of sales over the years. From neighbor kids bouncing on trampolines to naked neighbor children running around the backyard (true stories, both), to ugly
cars, buildings, parking lots, etc., there’s a lot of need
for privacy these days.
So don’t build a wall...PLANT ONE! There’s always
arborvitae, those tall, thin, popular (zzz…)
evergreens...but there are lots of other choices too!
SERVICEBERRY or REDBUD will grow to 20ft x 10ft,
and have lovely flowers, seasonal coverage, and great
fall colors. Shade tolerant too!
AMUR MAPLE forms a 15ft x 15ft clump of dense
branches, with excellent fall color, and while isn’t
as well-known as others, is a great hedge choice.
AMERICAN CRANBERRY BUSH is an excellent
choice for smaller spaces, since it matures at
8ft—15ft tall and 8ft-12ft wide, and has birdattracting fruit and great fall colors.
AMERICAN FILBERT is also a great choice for a thick
hedge. It will grow 10ft-15ft tall and 8ft-12ft wide,
flowers, small edible nuts, and is very tolerant of clay
soils. And your neighbors won’t know what it is!
So before you chose the big green wall of (zzz…)
arborvitae, take a look at a few of these more
interesting alternatives. Add in a
few grasses, some fun perennials,
and you’ll look at a garden, not a
fence, not your neighbors...maybe
you can even get them to pay for
some of the plants?
