Red-Twig Dogwood
Cornus sericea ‘Isanti’

Bailey Red-Twig Dogwood is a fast growing, multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub with outstanding, bare red stems in winter. Flat topped clusters of tiny, white flowers are followed by white fruit in the summer that are particularly attractive to birds. Green leaves. Fall color is a showy reddish-purple. Once these shrubs become established, it’s best to prune the top third off in early spring, as the best red color is found on the new growth. Alternatively, they may be cut to the ground every 2-3 years. This variety will not spread like other varieties of ‘twiggy’ Dogwoods.

This tree is on the Great Plant Picks list for the Pacific Northwest.

Foliage: Deciduous

Mature Height: 6-10’ tall.

Mature Width: 6-8’ wide.

Growth Rate: Fast

Burning Bush
Euonymus alatus

Burning Bush example on left; in 5 gallon pots at our nursery (they'll look better when they get some leaves :)

Burning Bush is a slow growing, deciduous shrub with exceptional fall color. Although it will eventually become quite large, it is easily kept smaller by pruning or shearing. If left to grow into its natural form, it becomes a rounded, flat-topped shrub with an attractive, horizontally-layered branching pattern. The medium-to-dark green leaves turn a stunning, blazing red when grown in sunny locations. Flowers are yellowish-green and inconspicuous. Fruit – which rarely sets – are a pink to orange capsule. The stems are interesting as they have a ridged, winged, corky appearance. Burning Bush can be used as a single specimen in the shrub border or planted as a hedge.

Foliage: Deciduous

Mature Height: To 15’

Mature Width: To 15’

Growth Rate: Slow

Sunlight: Full sun to shade. Best fall color in full sun.

Soil:. Prefers moist well-drained soil, but is also considered drought tolerant.

Comments: A tough shrub for tough planting locations. Generally tolerant of many soil conditions except wet soil. Tolerant of urban growing condition and pollution.

Buying directly from a grower has great advantages--fresh trees, great selection, and low prices--you maximize your purchasing power. We also have privacy trees that are not available elsewhere, such as our "Hedged Privacy Trees" and "Thin Man" Arborvitae. You can see our hedged and natural privacy trees in our beautiful 8 minute YouTube Farm Video.

Customer Satisfaction: Most important of all is what our customers think of us:

"I am really pleased with your work. You saved me several thousand dollars, steered me away from trees that wouldn't work, provided healthy and beautiful trees, did a great job planting them, and did everything on time and on schedule. You can quote me." Jo, Vashon Island

"Our privacy bank of trees has done nothing but grow well into maturity. Our back yard and deck area is totally private and the 10 trees your team planted [in 2005] are rich, leathery and dark green. We remark on them every day it seems. Please include me in any of your "Testimonials" as you would be hard pressed to find a more satisfied customer." Jim, Port Orchard

"For quality vs. value, your trees are the best landscape purchase I’ve ever made." Jeff, Seattle

"Michael, I just wanted to pass along a note to tell you how thrilled I am with the trees. The effect they have brought to our new courtyard in the front of our home here in Seattle has exceeded my expectations!" Chip Hanauer, Hydroplane Driver--Click Here to see his project.

"I work in customer service so I know good service when I experience it and you have my top rating. I would definitely recommend you to anyone who needs new landscaping. Thanks again.” Carol, Camano Island

"The [new] trees were a great privacy feature when we sold the last house! We now have a much larger space we want to talk with you about . . " Katherine, Fall City

“My compliments to your crew. We’ve had a lot of contractors working on our house recently and we’ve seen the entire range; and your guys were excellent. The trees make things look so much better—I started smiling as soon as I saw them going in." Holly, Queen Anne

"You guys are the best nursery I've ever done business with! And I have dealt with a few. You did what you said you would, on time with attention to detail rarely found. From the beginning of the quote process all the way through to the last detail you made it easy. And you work to ensure that the trees will thrive after planting with detailed advice, a complementary irrigation system, and a website filled with useful information. Most nurseries will just dump off the goods and tell you best of luck, put some water on them. You provide a quality product that sets you apart. Your crew was friendly, polite and operated as a well organized team. I would recommend you without hesitation! Thanks for doing a great job!” Ryan, Buckley

"We can not believe how beautiful your trees are. The privacy is unbelievable. If you ever need a testimonial let us know. Our yard is perfect! We sit there and say "my oh my”! Suzanne, Tacoma

"I don't think I've ever been as happy with something I've purchased." Sarah, Sammamish
