Frontyard® Linden
The Frontyard® Linden, Tilia americana 'Bailyard', is a great 'Frontyard' tree, selected because of its symmetrical branching and broadly pyramidal shape. It has an excellent symmetrical branching habit even as a young tree, and then gets nicely rounded with age. This Linden offers excellent shade with its dense foliage. It displays fragrant yellow flowers in summer with large, dark green foliage that turns yellow in the fall. It prefers moist, fertile, deep soils and tolerant of difficult, dry or heavy soils. It needs full sun, but will tolerate some shade. It is best used for farmstead windbreaks, and park trees in open landscape areas because of its large size and spreading root system. ... more information
Black Walnut - Carpathia The Carpathian Black Walnut tree, Juglans nigra, 'Carpathian', can be planted as a nut bearing landscape tree. Common names for the Carpathian Black Walnut tree are Persian Walnut, English Walnut, Carpathian Walnut and Madeira Nut. This deciduous tree bears nuts that are thin-shelled and easy to open. The tree's crown is rounded, spreading and open. The best growth and nut production comes when it is placed in deep, dry, light loamy soils. Carpathian Black Walnut trees are self-pollinating but they will normally do better with another neighboring Black Walnut. This selection comes from parent trees in central Michigan where trees crop abundantly although winter temps plunge to -34' F. It is an excellent shade tree that bears excellent thin shell English Walnuts. |
