    My mum and I are always at the ROCKPILE! I bought 3 climbing plants for my trellis, late last year … I cannot remember the name of them, they have lots of white flowers over them and boy oh boy, you can stand and watch them grow. I am so very proud of them, what a difference they have made to my front yard. However, I don’t know if I need to cut them down, at the end of the season? Perhaps they are called Wisteria????? I find it impossible to leave the store without a plant, tree or shrub. Thanks, Suzanne
    P.S. I’m signed up for the fire pit kit!

    I’m glad you’re happy with our plant material! We were able to look up the name of the vines you bought, it was Silver Lace Vine. These should be pruned in the Spring (they can be pruned back severely) and fertilized sparingly. Hope this helps, but please let us know if you have other questions! Good luck on the Fire Pit drawing!

    I was just wondering if you ever have miniature Weeping Cherry trees? I need a tree that will only grow a maximum of 15 feet. It is for my front yard…..I live next to High Tension Wires and they cut down my beautiful tree a few years back. I’d like to plant something in it’s place which they say can not exceed 15 feet. Any other suggestions would be helpful for this Spring. Thank you for any help.

    Yes, we have several varieties of trees that will fit the bill. We will have “SNOW FOUNTAINS” WEEPING CHERRY, 2 or 3 DWARF FLOWERING CRABAPPLES, “COVEY” WEEPING REDBUD and several varieties of true DWARF JAPANESE MAPLES. Our selection of trees this year is absolutely phenomenal.
    If you need any more info, don’t hesitate to ask. ~ Art
