Does anyone have any experience with Ted's Trees @ 1118 Tillery in Austin?
Or any of the trees advertisers in the Austin American Classifieds?

I am looking for good sources for any or all of the below
plants/shrubs/trees
Lacey Oak
Live Oak
Bur Oak - or - Red Oak
Possumhaw Holly
Texas Redbud
Yaupon Holly
Dwarf Wax Myrtle
Southern Wax Myrtle
Yellow Bells
Texas Mountain Laurel


Any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated. I just moved
into a new house and need to
start landscaping the place.
I live in Round Rock and have purchased 4 trees from Ted's which they installed. Cherry Laurel, Red Oak, Chinquapin, and Live Oak have been installed. My Red Oak looks as though it might have Oak wilt ... its what I feared the most in planting it. I would suggest a Chinese Pistache because of its hardiness and resistance to any diseases. I will be planting one this weekend. Green and Growing in Pflugerville is the best all around nursery I have found in Austin and its surrounding areas.
