You can even use these "firework" style flowers in cut arrangements or as filler in your garden. The early-blooming Barley Blue Agapanthus is a must-have for any compact area, and it's versatile enough for any yard. Buy yours today! Planting & Care 1. Planting: Agapanthus plants thrives in average moisture and well-drained soil. They prefer full sun to partial shade, requiring 6 to 8 hours of sunlight daily, and are not picky about soil type or pH. Plant rhizomes 2 inches deep and 12 to 18 inches apart with the pointed end facing up, adding mulch for winter protection. For potted agapanthus, plant 1 inch deep and 8 inches apart in a fertile, well-draining mix in a container with drainage holes. A 12-inch pot works for one plant, but they bloom best when pot-bound. 2. Watering: Water regularly until established. It prefers average to moist conditions and should not be allowed to dry out. During periods of drought or extended heat, supplemental watering may be necessary. 3. Fertilizing: A thick layer of mulch helps to retain soil moisture and insulate the root system from temperature extremes. Fertilize in spring, then again two months later. 4. Pruning: Prune in late autumn. This plant requires occasional maintenance and should be cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season.

Upright Evergreen with Dense, Year-Round Foliage The Green Mountain Boxwood Cone is a robust, narrow evergreen shrub valued for its dense, dark green leaves and natural conical form. Ideal for creating formal hedges, borders, or focal points, this shrub adapts well to full sun or partial shade and thrives in a variety of soil conditions. Its compact growth habit and evergreen foliage provide year-round structure and privacy. Low-maintenance and deer resistant, the Green Mountain Boxwood Cone brings classic elegance and enduring beauty to landscapes and gardens alike. Planting & Care 1. Planting: To plant the Better Boxwood® Babylon Beauty™, dig a hole three times the width of the root ball and deep enough for the plant to sit level with or slightly above ground. Mix native soil with rich gardening soil for nutrients. If using clay soil, add pine bark mulch for better drainage. Gently separate any bound roots and place the plant in the hole with the top of the root ball level with the soil. Backfill without covering the root ball. This boxwood thrives in well-drained soil and prefers 4-6 hours of morning sunlight. Space plants 3-4 feet apart to allow for natural growth. Protect from strong winter winds. After planting, soak the plant with a hose to hydrate it and settle the soil and mulch. 2. Watering: Add 3 to 4 inches of mulch around your plant to retain moisture, avoiding the root ball to ensure oxygen access. 3. Fertilizing: In early spring, fertilize the plant with a slow-release, balanced fertilizer to promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can result in excessive, weak growth that makes the plant more vulnerable to diseases. 4. Pruning: Babylon Beauty™ has a low spreading growth, making it ideal for mass plantings. Occasional trimming helps maintain its shape and promotes denser foliage, and it’s best to prune in late winter or early spring before new growth.

Compact Evergreen with Vibrant Blue Needles The Monty® Blue Spruce Tree is a compact, slow-growing conifer celebrated for its intense blue needles and dense, uniform form. This dwarf variety maintains a neat, pyramidal shape, making it perfect for small landscapes, foundation plantings, or decorative accents. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, exhibiting excellent drought tolerance once established. Its vibrant foliage adds year-round color and texture, creating lasting beauty with minimal maintenance. Planting & Care 1. Planting: Choose an area with direct sunlight for your Monty Blue Spruce. Though it thrives in full sun, it will also grow in partial shade. Furthermore, a wide range of soil types supports the Blue Spruce - clay, loam or sandy - provided that the soil is well-drained. Once you’ve found your ideal area for planting, dig a hole that is shallower than the root ball and at least twice the width. If you’re planting several Blue Spruces together for privacy fencing, ensure you space them at least 10 to 20 feet apart. To help the soil retain moisture even more efficiently, spread 3 to 4 inches of mulch around the base of the Spruce. 2. Watering: To encourage proper growth, water your newly-planted Blue Spruce Trees at least once a week during the first year after planting, until the ground freezes during the winter. More frequent watering may be necessary during the warm summer months to keep the ground adequately moist. If you’re not sure when to water, simply feel the soil near your tree, down to about a depth of 1 inch. If it feels dry, it’s time to water. 3. Fertilizing: Although Monty Blue Spruces don’t require frequent fertilizing, an application during early spring (before the growing season) provides an extra boost of nutrients for longer needles and richer color. Use 10-10-10 slow-release fertilizer and follow label instructions.

Tropical Fruit with a Hint of Peanut Butter! Why Peanut Butter Trees? You won't find these one-of-a-kind fruits at the grocery store! The Peanut Butter Fruit Tree is a unique tropical specimen you'll have to see (and taste!) to believe. The Peanut Butter Fruit Tree, or Bunchosia argentea, is a South American native that blooms with clusters of bright yellow flowers.

The soft, sweet fruits have a unique taste that's reminiscent of peanut butter - and a texture that's similar to a fig. Each Peanut Butter Fruit Tree will produce two fruits per flower stem.

The Most Popular Avocado on the Market Why Hass Avocado Trees? The popular, tasty Hass, now home-grown and ready to enjoy much sooner than seed-grown fruit. Supermarket trips are a thing of the past when you're growing your own Hass Avocado Tree at home. And because the Hass is so expensive in stores, you save time and money. Best of all, our Hass Avocado fruit's unique flavor tastes better than store-bought. You'll save hundreds of dollars, especially since you can expect your tree to produce fruit year after year for 40+ years. The Hass's creamy inner flesh is delicious for everything, from classic uses in salads or guacamole to cooking and complementing the ever-popular avocado toast. For best results (and to take the guesswork out of growing), we've taken hardy avocado rootstock and grafted it onto a cutting from a mature avocado tree, proven to produce delicious fruit. We've done all the work in our process, which results in robust avocado growth. Outdoors, this fruit-bearing tree will reach heights of 15 to 20 feet and a width of 5 to 8 feet at full maturity. But when it's container-grown, it will reach a height between 5 to 7 feet, allowing easy harvesting. So, is there anything better than your own avocados, grown right from home and ready to enjoy? Order your Hass Avocado Tree today! This product will ship in a white plastic grow bag. Please remove this bag before planting, as you would a nursery pot! Planting & Care 1. Planting: Although partial sun will suffice, to produce avocados in abundance, make sure you choose a planting area that gives your Hass Avocado Tree full sun. Spacing with the Hass is important as well. Give your avocado tree about 15 feet of space from other trees and plants. The best months for planting are typically March through June, depending on where you live. Dig a hole twice as large as the tree's root system, carefully plant the tree and cover the roots. Tamp the soil down around the tree's root system to remove all air pockets. Using a small diameter wooden pole, stake the tree with a garden stake and tie the tree to the pole loosely using cotton twine. Finally, apply 3 inches of bark chips around the tree to help with moisture retention and prevent the growth of weeds. If planting in a container, use a cactus or citrus soil mix that is well-draining in a container that is slightly larger than the current one. 2. Watering: When planting, water your young avocado tree to be sure it is sufficiently hydrated. Otherwise allow the soil to dry between waterings. A thorough watering once weekly is generally all your avocado needs, however. While the roots prefer to stay on the dry side, avocado leaves love humidity. Indoor Avocados will do best if misted daily, especially when you are running heat during cooler months. You can also use a humidifier or fill your pot's saucer with rocks and add water; place your plant on the rocks ensuring the bottom of the pot is above the water line. 3. Pruning: Prune the Haas avocado lightly to maintain appearance or to remove damaged branches during the first few years after planting. Pruning should be done in the spring. 4. Fertilizing: Fertilize the Hass Avocado tree in the spring, summer, fall and winter, after the tree has been planted for one year using a well-balanced fertilizer. FGT Pro Tip: Your Hass will survive temperatures down to 20°F, but cooler temps can be stressful, especially for younger plants. We suggest adding an extra layer of protection with a frost blanket on younger trees if your temperatures get cooler than 30°F. FAQs How long does it take for an Avocado plant to bear fruit? How long your Avocado plant takes to bear fruit depends on how old your plant is to begin with. Avocados smaller than 3 feet tall might start to produce small fruits that will drop prematurely. When your tree is around 4-5 feet tall and becomes established, you should have regular harvests that increase with age. Is an Avocado plant an indoor plant? Avocados grow best outdoors in their native range (Zones 9-11) , but can be happy indoors, provided that their needs are being met. They prefer warm temperatures, humidity and lots of sunlight! What is the difference between a Hass Avocado and a regular Avocado? The Hass Avocado is the most common kind you will find in grocery stores. It's known for its dark skin when ripe and small pit. Other kinds of Avocado will have slightly different flavors and sizes. How tall do Hass Avocados grow? Outdoors, this fruit-bearing tree will reach heights of 15 to 20 feet and a width of 5 to 8 feet at full maturity. But when it's container-grown, it will reach a height between 5 to 7 feet, allowing easy harvesting. When do you harvest Hass Avocados? Generally, you can harvest your fruit between February and September. When do you water Hass Avocados? When planting, water your young Avocado Tree to be sure it is sufficiently hydrated. Otherwise, allow the soil to dry between waterings. A thorough watering once weekly is generally all your Avocado needs. While the roots prefer to stay on the dry side, Avocado leaves love humidity. Indoor Avocados will do best if misted daily, especially when you are running heat during cooler months. You can also use a humidifier or fill your pot's saucer with rocks and add water; place your plant on the rocks ensuring the bottom of the pot is above the water line.

Water deeply. Mulch 3 inches away from the base of the trunk Planting for indoor/patios: Choose a pot that is no wider than 1-2 inches than the pot the plant was shipped to you in.

Backfill with well draining potting mix. Water pot deeply until water comes out the bottom of your pot. If you're container-planting, select a pot (with drainage holes) that's twice as large as your plant's shipped container. Use organic soil, place your tree in the pot, and select a sunny spot for your Lecciana. Olive trees can tolerate a wide variety of soils, but it prefers moist soil with good drainage. Plant your young plant in the fall to allow it to become well-established. 2. Watering: Water your Lecciana Olive about two or three times a week, until it’s established. Once established, your Lecciana Olive will only need supplemental water to survive. Just check your soil - when the soil is dry down to the first 2 inches, it’s time to water the tree. 3. Pruning: During the first few years, only minimal pruning is needed for your Lecciana. For indoor trees, pruning regulates fruit production and shapes the tree for easier harvest and your desired size. 4. Fertilizing: Feed with a nitrogen-based blend, following label instructions. Fertilize your Lecciana until it starts bearing olives.

Pruning is rarely needed, so you won't spend hours cultivating this ornamental gem. Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better First, it's nearly impossible to find the Monkey Puzzle at most nurseries.

This can leave up to 90% of the roots behind, so you risk losing the tree since it's less able to absorb vital nutrients and water. But when you order your Monkey Puzzle from Fast Growing Trees, you get healthy roots, better branching, and unique ornamental beauty all in one - no guesswork in growing. Add contrasting texture and personality to your garden today...get your own Monkey Puzzle Tree! Planting & Care 1. Planting: Plant your monkey puzzle tree where it will receive full sun or partial shade (generally, 3 to 6 hours of sunlight daily). If you experience particularly hot summers, planting the tree somewhere that gets extra shade in the afternoon will help protect it from getting scorched. Aside from that, any area with well-drained soil is ideal. Dig your hole twice as wide and just as deep as the root ball. Loosen the soil around the hole and the root ball. Position your tree, backfill the soil, and remove all air pockets by tamping down the soil and applying water. Water the tree planting area again after planting is complete to settle the soil. 2. Watering: Water the tree deeply every week or two during its first year. Allow the soil to get dry before you water the tree again. Add a 2 to 3-inch layer of mulch at the base of the tree to retain soil moisture and keep the roots cool during hot summer temperatures. 3. Fertilizing: A monthly feeding around early spring to summer with an all-purpose, water-soluble fertilizer formula is recommended. 4. Pruning: Remove any low-growing branches or dead and broken branches in the early spring.

Hardy Evergreen for Challenging Landscapes The Bosnian Pine Tree transforms difficult growing conditions into opportunities for beauty. Native to the mountains of southeastern Europe, this tree has evolved to thrive where many ornamentals fail—in rocky terrain, poor soils, and exposed locations. Its dense, pyramidal silhouette and soft, silvery-green needles create visual interest throughout the year, while its slow, controlled growth habit makes it manageable in most landscape settings. This hardy pine excels in cold climates and tolerates drought once established, reducing your watering needs significantly. Whether you're looking to create a windbreak, establish a privacy screen, or add a sophisticated specimen tree to your property, the Bosnian Pine delivers reliable performance with minimal fuss. Its exceptional longevity means you're planting a legacy—a tree that will grace your landscape for generations to come. Planting & Care 1. Planting: Bosnian Pines prefer full sun - for best results, plant your Bosnian Pine in a spot in your yard that gets at least 6 hours of sun each day, with moderate soil that isn't too dry or wet. Then, dig a hole that's large enough to accommodate the root ball, place your tree carefully and back fill the soil. Water well to settle the soil and roots. Place a layer of pine needles or mulch around the base for moisture retention. Also, be sure the soil is firm after planting. If you can pull the tree out once it is planted, you need to pack the soil more tightly. 2. Watering: Your Bosnian Pine is moderately drought-resistant - water regularly while your tree is establishing, but rainfall should suffice after that. 3. Pruning: Prune your tree in winter or fall, and keep only the branches at the top two-thirds of tree. This will help your tree grow straighter and become more disease resistant. Immediately prune any diseased branches.

With all the possibilities this incredible citrus has to offer and the charm the tree will add to your garden, the Buddha's Hand is exceptional. Get your own today! NOTE: This product is specific to Florida. Find Buddha's Hand Citron available in other states. Planting & Care 1. Planting: For the Buddha's Hand Citron, choose a location with well-drained soil and plenty of sunlight - about 6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day. When you're ready to plant your Citron, select a container that's about twice the width of the shipped container and one with drainage holes. From there, fill your pot halfway with soil, place your tree, and then backfill the rest with soil, leaving about one or two inches at the top. Finally, water your plant to settle the roots. 2. Watering: Be sure to water your Citron Tree regularly for its first year once each week and more frequently during the hot season and periods of extended drought. After the first year, the tree’s roots will become a bit more established and you can reduce watering to once every two weeks. A good rule of thumb? Using your index finger. Stick it into the pot and feel around for moisture - if there is still some present in the soil, hold off on watering. If it feels like it is drying out on the top couple inches, water just enough until you see it escaping the drainage holes and stop. 3. Fertilizing: Container-grown Buddha's Hand Citron Trees will require a well-balanced fertilizer formula specialized for growing citrus. This formula already contains all of the micronutrients that the tree will need. Feed the trees regularly, but be sure to follow the directions on the fertilizer’s packaging. The typical time frame for container-grown citrus is to start in February and provide fertilizer once every 4 to 6 weeks until September. 4. Pruning: Remove suckers as they appear by pinching them off of the tree or using a sterilized pair of cutters to remove them. You can easily sterilize your tool(s) by wiping them with a household rubbing alcohol. Prune off any dead or damaged branches in the early spring after the threat of frosts has passed. 5. Pollination: You can pollinate your indoor Buddha's Hand by hand using a small, dry, fine-tipped paintbrush. Swirl the brush around the center of each bloom and collect the pollen on the brush. Go to the next bloom and repeat the process until every bloom has been treated, and repeat the process daily. Don’t wash the paintbrush until after the blooms have been pollinated. The blooms will fall and the fruit will begin to form.
