Limeglow Juniper - Planted May 15th, 2010
Limeglow Juniper
Juniperus horizontalis 'limeglow'
Both my sister Susan and myself bought these at Alden Lane Nursery a couple weeks ago.
Blue Spruce Planted May 15th, 2010
Globe Blue Spruce - Picea pungens 'Globosa'
I've had this one in a pot for a couple of years...
finally decided to stick it in the ground...
Just Dandy - Planted May 15th 2010
Just Dandy Dwarf Hinoki Cypress.
Chamaecyparis obtusa ' Just Dandy'
Got this one at Alden Lane Nursery for $29.99 a couple weeks ago...
I planted two of them today, the pic of the other didn't come out...
minature spruce?
I got this one in Oregon at a nursery by the Hoyt Aboritium.
I think this is the second spring I've had it.
So I'm guessing I got in late '08 or early '09.

Potted Jade - Spring 2010
To get the full moon to where I wanted, I had to move another japanes maple out back.
When I did that, I had an extra pot and decided to put a jade into it.
I'm expecting this thing to take off now that is has some room to grow.
It will be interesting to see how it does.
Full Moon Japanes Maple - Spring 2010
We picked this up at Alden Lane also. A full moon japanes maple.
We'd been looking for one like this at a reasonable price for years.
Nice!!!
Picea Abies Pendula - Spring 2010
We picked this up at Alden Lane Nursery in Livermore Ca a few weekends ago...
I think it would have looked good in a pot also...but there isn't much room for pots anymore...
Just started raining..
The pond - Spring 2010
The Pool - Spring 2010
I thought the pic came out good
Globosa Blue Spruce - Spring 2010
Got these from Lowe's for $35 per.
They are putting on about 4 inches of growth so far this spring.
I'm looking forward to them growing together and providing nice backdrop to the pool.
Bald cypress Peve Minaret - Spring 2010
New tree last Spring.
Looking good so far this year.
They look nice behind the pool...
I practiced pruning a few branches last winter.
They came out fine...
We will keep these trees at about 8 feet tall....
Japanese Maple - Rick's Favorite - Spring 2010
Unfortunately I can't remember what it is called.
Thunderhead Pine Spring 2010
This is another favorite.
She is very happy this year.
Looks like about 1.5 feet of new growth.
Currently at about 4 feet high
This plan should be perfect in this spot..
Goldielocks Spring 2010
One of our best trees.
Just a few days past the prime as the yellow candles are just starting to turn a tad green.
Still AWESOME...in my opinion.
