Evergreens For Screening

Evergreens are very important to any landscape or to address a privacy issue. Not having evergreens in a landscape can make for an empty cold look especially in the winter. Placing evergreens in a landscape provides greenery and fullness in the winter and year round privacy. In addition, evergreens are the only choice for a visual block of neighbors, roadways, and eyesores such as air conditioning units,even for trains and heavy road traffic sites. Not only that, evergreens are important to many critters such as little birds and rabbits. Little birds are constantly being harrassed by hawks and evergreens provide ideal hiding places from such preditors. Not only that, evergreens shelter birds from freezing winds and cold rains. Birds will sing in happiness of their new shelter to anyone who wishes to hear them. So, plant evergreens.

Hollies for Screening and Privacy

There are many different types of hollies and many have traits that are great for use in landscapes and privacy walls. Some hollies such as the Ilex Skypencil Holly do not have spines on them. Others have mean spines such as the >Ilex 'Dragon Lady' Holly....Noted for deer resistance.

We have available 20 different types of hollies at Highland Hill Farm. See How We Dig and Our Efforts in Producing Many of Our Trees and Shrubs. Although most often associated with Christmas, hollies are used to good advantage in gardens as specimen trees or foundation plantings providing attractive decoration the year round. This feature of year round interest is complimented by fresh wreaths for trimming at Christmas.

Dawn Redwoods Our Tree of the Month

Okay campers: This tree proves that scientists don't know when a tree is extinct. Fossil records showed that this tree was extinct for 35 million years, yet this deciduous conifer fooled them all until 1945 when it was rediscovered in a remote valley of Central China in 1945. Dawn Redwood or The Dinosaur Tree, is officially called, "Metasequoia glyptostroboides". The Dawn Redwood first came to America in 1945 in seeds and has shown to be viable in zones 6 to 8. This tree grows fast and can reach 75 to 100 feet by 25 feet in diameter. It likes full sun to partial shade and is tolerant of moist to dry soils with ph ranges of 3.7 to 7.0. Go ahead and plant it in clay soils, loam or sand. Its bright green, feathery, needle-like foliage will turn brown and will drop quickly in the fall. Thus this plant will be suitable for a great summer screen or a specimen plant.
This plant is great for a Hort 101 beginner. It is easy to grow, pest free, adaptable, grows fast, and has soft bright green needles, and of course we have hundreds of 3-4' plants ready for your landscape.
