Trees & Shrubs

ATTENTION: Some states require that soil be treated with pesticides prior to shipment. Please review our Shipping FAQ page to out find if your state requires treatment. 

The line between whether a plant is a "tree" or a "shrub" is sometimes very thin and quite blurry!  We use the following criteria to decide which type applies to a certain plant:

Trees
  • Reaching over 20' tall at maturity
  • Having a single or multiple trunks, typically more than 4" in diameter
  • Trunks rise significantly above ground level before branching and leaves are present
Shrubs
  • Remaining less than 20' tall at maturity
  • Typically having multiple heavy branches or trunks measuring less than 4" in diameter
  • Branching and leaves are present at or slightly above ground level
