The Mugo Pine is a smaller evergreen that is commonly seen in small city lots or up against houses or commercial buildings. Its slow growth allows for a long life without ever getting too large.
It is a very attractive tree that seldom gets the attention it deserves outside of professional landscapers. Mugo Pine is an extremely hardy, adaptable evergreen.
Black Hawthorn is a versatile plant that is native to wetlands and other areas with moist soils, but can also tolerate dry soils. This plant can be grown as a short shrub, or a tree reaching 30 feet tall.
Black Hawthorn is valued for erosion control and attracting pollinators. It also makes an attractive flowering ornamental that can be planted as a specimen or pruned as a hedge. It is commonly used in shelterbelts.
