The Utah Conservation Districts of Utah County will be holding their annual Spring seedling tree/shrub sale.  Trees can be ordered anytime between now and April 15, 2016.  (Friday) or until sold out.  The seedlings will be available Friday/Saturday April 22-23, in two Utah County locations.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact Keith at 1-801-377-5580 x121.

You can get some great deals right now on seedling trees and shrubs. This is through the Utah Association of Conservation Districts. Look for the link to the Timp-Nebo/Alpine Tree Sale. Bundles of 5 are priced from $10 to 17.50. They won’t ship so you’ll have to pick them up – somewhere in Utah County – it doesn’t say where. Orders will be available April 17th or 18th. When I checked the site, this is what was available, but they are sold first come first serve.

We are going to try the Amur Maple, Nanking Cherry, Purple Lilac, Forsythia and Mugo Pine. We’ve had great luck with Mugos. We had one Forsythia that didn’t do great, but we are going to try it again in a spot with more sun.
