The nursery
is open for sales in April when winter snows have retreated and
warmer weather brings about outdoor activities and closes late
October or early November when cold weather and snow returns.

you will find in the list to the left.
Do
you want more detailed information on shrubs? I use this manual

Do
you want pictures? This book, also written by Michael Dirr,
is similar but is illustrated.
I know landscapers who use it when showing clients plant
material they would like to use in their landscape plans.
