it’s an Italian cypress Cupressus sempervirens. Hardy only in warm climates that don’t dip below 20•F in winter.

Hi what is the very 1st picture of the tree on the right. Yellowish in the pot. Tall and narrow. Thank you!

Ornamental cherries do not produce edible fruits. Their fruits are very tiny, or in many cases, the flowers are sterile and the plants don’t produce any fruits at all. I think it sounds like a good choice for your area.

Hi Jessica. Love the flowering cherry. Is it a fruiting tree. Would like to avoid that. Would it be okay for partial shade in zone 6a in Ontario?

I love the large containers that Crescent Garden makes. https://www.crescentgarden.com I’m sure they would have a large pot that would work.

Thanks Jessica! I’m having trouble finding a planter that big. Any suggestions?

Hi Linda –
I would suggest a minimum of 30 gallons. Bigger if possible.

Hi Jessica,
What size planter do you recommend for a 15 foot arborvitae (similar to your cover picture).
Thanks-
Linda

I’d suggest Slender Silhouette Sweet Gum or Spire oak.

Any of the dwarf evergreen varieties mentioned in this article would do the trick: https://farm-kits.com/dwarf-evergreen-trees/
