We are celebrating our 30th year in business and wish to thank our customers and friends who have helped us achieve this milestone. To our existing and future customers, we look forward to another 30 years in partnership with you. We hope you enjoy the beautiful pictures and helpful cultural information about our ever expanding product line contained in this year’s catalog. You have an open invitation to tour our nursery and see our large assortment of Japanese maples and grafted conifers as well as our top-of-the-line cultural practices. Looking forward, we anticipate demand to continue as the economy and housing market remain positive. To meet this increase we have added gravel sections as well as 69,000 square feet of poly houses for containerized production. With labor shortages here to stay, we have invested in two new, state of the art trimming machines and a new, constantly churning, ‘Big Blue Boy’ canning machine. We are working hard to provide consistent quality that you deserve while increasing our efficiency in labor intensive areas. As part of our efficiency process, Eshraghi Nursery is actively engaged in the Lean consortium, based on the Toyota Production System. This process has proven effective in reducing our overall costs, allowing us to keep our pricing down and quality up. A printed insert of our current pricing is available, and if not included with this catalog, can be obtained by contacting us at 503-628-8685. Please enjoy our new 2018-20 catalog and we look forward to our bright future together.

Careful, modest, bark stripping has little effect on the health or longevity of trees. (see pages 24 to 35) photograph © Douglas Justice 24 Tree of the Year : Thuja plicata Donn ex D. Don In this year’s Tree of the Year article DOUGLAS JUSTICE writes an account of the western red-cedar or giant arborvitae (tree of life), a species of conifers that, for centuries has been central to the lives of people of the Northwest Coast of America. “In a small clearing in the forest, a young woman is in labour. Two women companions urge her to pull hard on the cedar bark rope tied to a nearby tree. The baby, born onto a newly made cedar bark mat, cries its arrival into the Northwest Coast world. Its cradle of firmly woven cedar root, with a mattress and covering of soft-shredded cedar bark, is ready. The young woman’s husband and his uncle are on the sea in a canoe carved from a single red-cedar log and are using paddles made from knot-free yellow cedar. When they reach the fishing ground that belongs to their family, the men set out a net of cedar bark twine weighted along one edge by stones lashed to it with strong, flexible cedar withes. Cedar wood floats support the net’s upper edge.

    Department of Planning and Zoning Subject: Howard County Landscape Manual Updates: Recommended Street Tree List (Appendix B) and Recommended Plant List (Appendix C) - Effective July 1, 2010 To: DLD Review Staff Homebuilders Committee From: Kent Sheubrooks, Acting Chief Division of Land Development Date: July 1, 2010 Purpose: The purpose of this policy memorandum is to update the Recommended Plant Lists presently contained in the Landscape Manual. The plant lists were created for the first edition of the Manual in 1993 before information was available about invasive qualities of certain recommended plants contained in those lists (Norway Maple, Bradford Pear, etc.). Additionally, diseases and pests have made some other plants undesirable (Ash, Austrian Pine, etc.). The Howard County General Plan 2000 and subsequent environmental and community planning publications such as the Route 1 and Route 40 Manuals and the Green Neighborhood Design Guidelines have promoted the desirability of using native plants in landscape plantings. Therefore, this policy seeks to update the Recommended Plant Lists by identifying invasive plant species and disease or pest ridden plants for their removal and prohibition from further planting in Howard County and to add other available native plants which have desirable characteristics for street tree or general landscape use for inclusion on the Recommended Plant Lists. Please note that a comprehensive review of the street tree and landscape tree lists were conducted for the purpose of this update, however, only

  • Dying Cedar Hedges —What Is the Cause?
    Points covered in this factsheet Symptoms Planting problems Physiological effects Environmental, Soil and Climate factors Insect, Disease and Vertebrate agents Dying Cedar Hedges —What Is The Cause? Attractive and normally trouble free, cedar trees can be great additions to the landscape. Dieback of cedar hedging in the landscape is a common prob- lem. In most cases, it is not possible to pinpoint one single cause. Death is usually the result of a combination of envi- ronmental stresses, soil factors and problems originating at planting. Disease, insect or animal injury is a less frequent cause. Identifying The Host Certain species of cedar are susceptible to certain problems, so identifying the host plant can help to identify the cause and whether a symptom is an issue of concern or is normal for that plant. The most common columnar hedging cedars are Thuja plicata (Western Red Cedar - native to the West Coast) and Thuja occidentalis (American Arborvitae or Eastern White ICULTURE, PLANT HEALTH UNIT Cedar). Both species are often called arborvitae. Common varieties of Western Red ce- dar are ‘Emerald Giant’, ‘Excelsa’ and Atrovirens’. ‘Smaragd’ and ‘Pyramidalis’ are com- mon varieties of Eastern White cedar hedging. Species of Cupressus (Cypress), Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (Yellow Cedar or False Cypress) and Chamaecyparis law- soniana (Port Orford Cedar or lawsom Cypress) are also used in hedging. Symptoms The pattern of symptom development/distribution can provide a clue to whether the prob- lem is biotic (infectious) or abiotic (non-infectious). Trees often die out in a group, in one section of the hedge, or at random throughout the hedge.

  • Dry White Pine (Hemlock) Oak Forest
    Dry white pine (hemlock) oak forest This community type occurs on fairly dry sites, often with 25% or more of the forest floor covered by rocks, boulders and/or exposed bedrock. The canopy may be somewhat open and tree growth somewhat suppressed. The tree stratum is dominated by a mixture of Pinus strobus (eastern white pine), or occasionally Tsuga canadensis (eastern hemlock), and a mixture of dry-site hardwoods, predominantly oaks. On most sites, the conifer and the hardwood component both range between 25% and 75% of the canopy. The oak species most often associated with this type are Quercus montana (chestnut oak), and Q. alba (white oak), although Q. velutina (black oak), Q. coccinea (scarlet oak), or Q. rubra (northern red oak) may also occur. Other associated trees include Nyssa sylvatica (black-gum), Betula lenta (sweet birch), Fraxinus americana (white ash), Prunus serotina (wild black cherry), and Castanea dentata (American chestnut) sprouts. There is often a heath-dominated shrub layer with Kalmia latifolia (mountain laurel) being especially important; Gaylussacia baccata (black huckleberry), Vaccinium spp. (blueberries), and Kalmia angustifolia (sheep laurel) are also common. Other shrubs, like Cornus florida (flowering dogwood), Hamamelis virginiana (witch-hazel), Viburnum acerifolium (maple-leaved viburnum) may also occur on less acidic sites. There is typically a sparse herbaceous layer with a northern affinity; Aralia nudicaulis (wild sarsaparilla), Pteridium aquilinum (bracken fern), Maianthemum canadense (Canada mayflower), Gaultheria procumbens (teaberry), Trientalis borealis (star-flower), and Medeola virginiana (Indian cumber-root) are typical. The successional status of this type seems variable, in some cases, especially on harsher sites, it appears relatively stable, in other cases it appears to be transitional.
