Black Oak
Quercus velutina "The Black Oak Tree, `Quercus velutina,' is a deciduous tree with deeply furrowed bark that is nearly black on mature trees. Very similar to the Red Oak, the main difference is the ability of the Black Oak to thrive on poor or varied soils. It will occur naturally on poor sandy or clay hillsides. Historically, the inner bark of the Black Oak tree was important for its tannin and as a source of yellow dye. The Black Oak is also know as the Yellow Oak, Yellowbark Oak or Smoothbark oak."

The Kwanzan Flowering Cherry Tree, `Prunus serrulata Kwanzan,' will rapidly grow to its mature height of twenty to thirty feet. This deciduous tree is one of the most popular flowering cherry trees available on the market. It has clear pink, double blooms, with multiple petals like a carnation. The flowering period is three weeks long. Once the blooms have been spent, they will give way to light green foliage that has a red tinge. This beautiful ornamental flowering tree is also known as the Japanese Flowering Cherry Tree.
The Fuji Apple is a wonderful all around fruit. The apples are super sweet, super juicy and super crisp. They are quite possibly the best snacking apple available. The fruits are aromatic, sweet and crisp with a very firm texture. The Fuji apple's appearance varies from yellowish green with red highlights to mostly red in color. The spicy crisp sweetness gives it an exceptional eating quality. Perfect for fresh salads, the Fuji is becoming an apple with a very large consumer base.
The Begonia Pendula Red, `Begonia Pendula Red,' displays multitudes of beautiful red flowers. This spring planted tuber has much smaller flowers than upright begonias, and also requires more water. Sometimes called basket begonias, Pendula makes up in numbers what the flowers lack in size. Light fertilization applied weekly will assist in maintaining healthy, vibrant blooms. Daily watering should be applied in warm weather, as they should never be allowed to dry out.
