At North Branch Nursery, one of our core values is education. Not only do we sell quality plants, but we also give helpful information about trees, shrubs, perennials, and how to maintain them.
This page has a number of different resources that can help to care for all of you plantings, new and old. The information in these articles has been compiled from different sources and is not a comprehensive collection. Results are based off of research and our observations in the landscape and in a production setting. Feel free to continue your education and research more on the topics from this page.
