How about an American or Chinese Fringe tree? I've had one of each and love
them both. "Jeff Springer" wrote in message ... Hi, Since we are getting close to spring I thought that I seek some ideas from the group. I would like to solicit ideas for a small tree (20-25' max.) to be placed in my front yard. A little history..... The house was previously owned by a landscaper and he has already planted a nice assortment of trees: japanese maples (coral bark, red laceleaf, green laceleaf), corkscrew willow, river birches, holly trees, magnolia, pin oak, zelkova, mostly in the backyard. The front yard has wonderful shrub and flower beds, but I would really like to fill one spot near the driveway (= no sappy trees)..... I want to find something that is rare and unique (a showstopper). While I am not looking to spend a bundle, I would definitely pay more to acquire such a tree. Any ideas? Something that would fluorish in SW Wake County. One tree I am thinking about is a Chinese flame tree..... |
