Bought a small, pink dogwood last week. I had $300 in my pocket and that's what I was willing to spend. Trip to the nursery and the price was exactly $300. Picked the biggest of the small ones. The larder ones would not have been manageable by me and the boys.
The nursery delivered it this AM and we proceeded to dig a ginormous hole to drop it into. When we were done it was 52" wide and 28" deep. We ran out to get a pick as the soil was rather rocky and criss-crossed with oak roots. Hunter stuck with me --sent Reed in to complete an essay on the Industrial Revolution.
Spent 4-5 hours total. Excited to have a companion for our gorgeous magnolia!
