SAVE UP TO 21% COMING SOON (new stock expected: later this season) 
Green Alder is a cold hardy, native shrub. It is often planted on infertile sites so it can fix nitrogen from the air and improve the soil quality.
Eastern Red Cedar is native to eastern Canada and is actually a variety of juniper, not cedar. Its pyramidal crown, low hanging branches, and dense, compact foliage makes it an ideal windbreak or shelterbelt tree. GREEN ALDER QUICK FACTSEASTERN RED CEDAR QUICK FACTS
