Default [IBC] experience with Mountain Hemlock?

Mountain Hemlocks do best in semi-shade. The main problem is
adalgid
invasion. If you see puffy white stuff in the crotches of

small branches,
you've got them. If you see only a few, use a cotton swab and

alcohol to
remove them: if too many for that, use Diazonon or other

systemic.

This too, but in MY book the main problem is its slowness --
approaching slothfulness. They just SIT there. If they add a
quarter-inch a year, you're doing well.

Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - Only where
people have learned to appreciate and cherish the landscape and
its living cover will they treat it with the care and respect it
should have - Paul Bigelow Sears.
