Hectic time at the nursery

We have been busy the last couple of months ,what with collecting trees and getting them potted up. Then we set up the shade cloth /set up the benches /empty out the greenhouse / now we are clipping & re potting like crazy.
I couldn't have done it with out the help of good friends like "Se"/ Jason / Mr. "B"/ and Jacob !!! Thanks guys I really appreciate it!!!





These maples were dug up from my raised bed along with nine others.....by Se & myself.












We set up kind of an assembly line /bare rooting /cutting the roots /& then potting them in containers.





















These eleven trees were the result of our days effort..Thank you "Se"!




















This is a pink rhododendron straight out of the green house.














This is an old gnarled boxwood. Estimated age about 35-to- 40 yrs.

















A 25 yr old ficus with a lot of aerial roots.
