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. I second the Barton Spring Nursery recommendation, and I've noticed plenty of yellow bells and Texas mountain laurel on my recent visits. They have lots of trees in the back and have plenty of helpful, knowledgeable staffers. In between Walsh Tarlton and Westbank (or for the big picture, in between Mo-Pac and 360) on Bee Caves Road in West Lake Hills. -- Marc Stephenson IBM Server Group - Austin,TX T/L: 678-3189 |
