  • I think you are correct with the crabapple…….the second one, though, maybe a hemlock? DOes it get really cute little tiny pine cones, less than an inch big?ReplyCancel

  • Dawn…I’ll have to go look. I’m actually thinking of planting one of those gold colored hemlocks in the front – you know, the ones that go to 50 feet? This one doesn’t remind me of a hemlock, but I’ll go out and take a closer look on a day it’s NOT raining!ReplyCancel

  • your blog doesn’ t like me so much lately! It said I had a dup comment, but it never posted my first one. Anywho!
