Boulevard Linden
The Boulevard Linden, Tilia americana 'Boulevard', has a narrow pyramidal form with ascending branches. Large, dark green foliage combines beautifully with fragrant yellow flowers in early summer. This linden is an attractive specimen where height is needed but width is limited, such as boulevards. It is best used for farmstead windbreaks, and park trees in open landscape areas because of its large size and spreading root system. This deciduous tree requires full sun, will tolerate some shade, and needs well drained soil. It has a pyramidal shape when young, becoming rounded when mature. ... get more information
Red Mulberry The Red Mulberry tree, Morus Rubra, is a medium-sized tree, reaching approximately 50, and occasionally, 70 feet in height. The trunk can reach a diameter of up to two feet. The broad, rounded crown consists of many shorter branches, making red mulberry a desirable shade tree. It is a rapid-growing tree. The tree's value is derived from its abundant fruits, which are eaten by people, birds, and small mammals. Red mulberry is found on a variety of sites in the East and Central U. S. and is tolerant of shade. The fruit is an edible red-purple drupe that resembles blackberry. It has dark green leaves, and the fall color of the leaves is yellow. |
