As always, we enjoy looking over your plant lists and helping you locate all the material you want. Also, prices fluctuate, and we welcome your questions in our garden center. THE FARMS We enjoy farming and plan to continue to grow plants for the Northeast for decades to come. We take our role of stewarding soil and water resources very seriously. We currently have farms in Northboro, Sterling, Boylston, and Charlton, producing plants in the field and in container. As we have reached a century of growing, we certainly understand the long term logic of sustainable agriculture. We energetically support both our industry’s and the environmental community’s efforts to educate about the critical role that plant material plays in clean water, habitat restoration, shore erosion, and quality of life. We are proud to be “Growing Green” for 105 years and welcome visits to our farms. NURSE RY SA LES YARD We maintain one of the largest above ground B&B inventories in the country. Often, our customers reserve plant material for use on upcoming plantings. We allow wholesale customers or their professional representatives to tag plant material. We will not tag material with the clients of wholesale customers unless accompanied by the wholesale customer or landscape architect. Plants selected and tagged by retail customers with our retail salespeople will be charged retail prices. As a service to our customers, we care for reserved plant material at no additional cost, for a reasonable period of time. The reasonable limit of time which plants can be reserved should be discussed at time of purchase. A non- refundable deposit may also be required to hold plant material. Orders can be scheduled to be picked up or delivered on our own fleet of trucks. 1 CLAIMS We take great care to see that only plants in great condition leave our nursery. We also want to provide our customers with all the information they need to have happy thriving plant material. The future growth and success of plants depends on proper planting care, and maintenance. Proper planting insructionsand care information is always available in our garden center. We also pride ourselves on an exceptionally qualified staff, including many Massachusetts Certified Horticulturists that can answer your questions and concerns. Trees and shrubs are guaranteed to live for one year from date of purchase as writtenon the receipt you receive when you purchase the plants. Claims will not be considered without this receipt. If the exact plant that is being replaced is not available, the guarantee may be used for credit for other trees or shrubs up to the dollar amount of the plant being replaced only. Most problems appear within the first month or so and are easily solved with a bit of cultural adjustment. Please call or come into the garden center at the FIRST sign of a problem. More complete information regarding our guarantee is on the back of our warranty receipts and always available from sales personnel. Not covered under our Guarantee 1. Herbaceous perennials, roses, marginally hardy material(designated as zone 6 or higher), Live Christmas trees, groundcover, house plants and annuals. 2. Plants that miss a blooming cycle. 3. Replacement plants. 4. Plants that were not planted, watered, and maintained in a timely manner. 5.

  • Rhodora (Rhododendron Canadense) Global Rank: G5 State Rank: SNR Climate Change Vulnerability Index: Highly Vulnerable Confidence: Low
    Species: Rhodora (Rhododendron canadense) Global Rank: G5 State Rank: SNR Climate Change Vulnerability Index: Highly Vulnerable Confidence: Low Habitat: Rhodora is often locally abundant in bogs, peaty wetlands, and barrens in northeast Pennsylvania (Rhoads and Block 2007; Rhoads and Klein 1993). The range of rhodora extends from Newfoundland and Quebec west to Ontario and south to northeastern Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey (NatureServe 2011). Threats: Rhodora is likely to be sensitive to changes in temperature or hydrology at the sites it inhabits. Rhodora is mostly shade intolerant so tree species establishment and subsequent canopy development likely reduces populations of this shrub species. Main Factors Contributing to Vulnerability Rank: Distribution relative to natural barriers: Rhodora is limited to the northeastern corner of Pennsylvania where it represents the southern edge of its range. Dispersal and movement: Rhodora seeds are wind and water dispersed (Campbell et al. 2003) and mostly limited to short distance dispersal within the site where established. Predicted micro sensitivity to changes in temperature: Rhodora occur in microsites/microhabitats towards the cooler end of the spectrum. In Pennsylvania, rhodora is confined to the cooler, northeastern portion of the state. Predicted macro sensitivity to changes in precipitation, hydrology, or moisture regime: Within the species range in Pennsylvania, the species has experienced a less than average precipitation variation in the past 50 years. Predicted micro sensitivity to changes in precipitation, hydrology, or moisture regime: Rhodora is somewhat to moderately dependent on a moisture regime that is highly vulnerable to loss or reduction with climate change and the expected direction of moisture change is likely to reduce the species’ distribution, abundance, or habitat quality.

  • The While Flowering Rhodora
    THE WHITE FLOWERING RHODORA The rhodora is a typical New England shrub, growing from Lab- rador and Newfoundland, south to Pennsylvania. The correct scientific name is Rhododendron canarlense, though it is known throughout New England by Its synonym, Rhodora canadensis. It is one of our hardiest woody plants, being hardy in areas where the temperatures may go from 35 to 50 degrees below zero during the winter months. It is known and readily recognized for its delicate rose-purple flowers, appearing in the early spring before the lea~es. It is usually found growing in slightly marshy ground. In ornamental plantings, it is ~alued for its early spring flowers and is used especially in naturalistic plantings. A good place to see it is to go to Ralph Waldo Emerson’s grave in Concord on May 25, his birthday anniversary. Because of his poem "Rhodora" and his affection for the flower, some admirer will have carried out the tradition. Whether the flowers come from the neigh- borhood or from far afield, there will be a bunch laid reverently upon the grave. The white flowering variety of the rhodora, known as Rhododendron canadense albiflorum, is not a particularly "new" plant, but try to find it in any of last year’s nursery catalogues ! Not a single American nursery listed it last year or any year prior to that, as far as I know. However, it has been known to exist since 1894, at least, when it was described by Rand and Redfern in their "Flora of Mount Desert Island." The white flowering variety of Rhododendron canadense has all the characteristics of the species except that its flowers are white.
