I have been to Home Depot and Lowe's and I am just not impressed with their
selection or prices.
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


My own preference is for smaller trees, but if you want or need size
immediately Ted's is reputable source for you.

Smaller trees (1-10 gal. or so) adapt more quickly after transplanting
and within a few years will catch up in size to larger transplants.
And they're of course far less expensive. Of other nurseries in town,
Barton Springs Nursery has the widest selection and best prices I've
found on native tree species. Most of my own trees come from there.

Nice list, btw.
