Pin Oak Tree
$26.99
Pin Oak Tree (Quercus palustris)
Pin Oak Tree: Quercus palustris, or the pin oak tree, is a tall deciduous shade tree beloved across most of the United States. It enjoys widespread popularity for its stately size, ample shade, and robust health.
The pin oak tree is a North American native species that originated in Canada, New England, and the northern plains. Although it is a cool-weather species, it is also heat tolerant and will thrive in the moderate heat of the upper southern states and southern plains.
Other common names for the pin oak tree are swamp oak and Spanish swamp oak.
The Pin Oak Tree Will Flourish with Little Help From You
In the northern woods of the United States, the pin oak tree enjoys fertile, moist, woodsy soil, warm summer temperatures, and full or partial sunshine. It loves a lot of water, but it is also drought-tolerant. Replicate these conditions when your pin oak tree is young, and it will develop into a hardy tree that will need little help from you later.
When you plant your pin oak tree, find a sunny spot in the yard and give it plenty of space to spread as it grows. Work some mulch or compost into the earth around it to recreate the conditions that make this species flourish in nature--this material gives the pin oak tree essential nutrition for growth. Ensure your pin oak seedling receives about an inch of water each week until it establishes strong roots.
The Pin Oak Tree Provides Ample Shade for Your Yard
Pin oak trees grow to an average height of seventy feet and up to three feet of trunk diameter. As it matures, the crown forms a slightly rounded triangle shape but will round out more at the top in maturity. The bark is gray or light brown, sometimes with a lovely red tinge.
Pin oak leaves are five inches long, elliptic-shaped, medium green, glossy, and have five lobes. They generally turn rust or burgundy in the fall.

Prairie Dropseed - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Prairie Dropseed (Sporobolus heterolepis)
Prairie Dropseed: Sporobolus heterolepis, or prairie dropseed, is a beautiful, sophisticated ornamental grass species native to North America. It will grow well in almost all USDA plant hardiness zones in the contiguous United States. This warm-season grass prefers a home in mixed sun and shade or full sunshine.
The prairie dropseed takes its name from two things. It is first an homage to the plant's original home, the North American prairies. It next refers to the tiny, round seed which matures in a pod, breaks open, and then drops to the ground for self-seeding.
Prairie Dropseed Is a Good-Natured Ornamental Grass
Prairie Dropseed is an easy-going species, happy in almost any soil texture. It only asks the gardener to de-compact the soil and mix in peat moss, leaf litter, or mulch to loosen up clay or denser soils.
It likes to receive about an inch or so of weekly water, but it does not like wet feet or standing water. Please give it a quickly-draining location in your garden for the best results. The roots are sturdy and fibrous, which can help protect the area against erosion.
It is a lovely addition for many different landscape applications, including these:
Mass plantings
Garden border (in the middle row)
Foundation plantings
Shade garden
Native species garden
Urban garden
Rock garden
Pollinator garden
It's extraordinarily agreeable and willing to stand alone as an accent plant or in a large colony to create a focal point.
The Lovely Texture and Good Looks of Prairie Dropseed
The leaves of Sporobolus heterolepis are long, delicate, and slender--almost resembling a thick head of hair. Each leaf can grow almost three feet long and then spill over in a water fountain effect. The clumps are no more than about two feet wide. The flowers grow on slender spikes, are brown, and display delicate tiny seed pods.

TN Nursery customers covet this species for its bright green foliage reaching almost four feet high and the tall, red, feathery spike.
Switch grass prefers a full sunshine location, but it will also tolerate partial sun. It's a prairie grass that would like about an inch of water weekly but is also drought-tolerant.

Switch Grass Fills in any Garden With Abundant Greenery
Panicum virgatum is full and lovely. It displays a lovely emerald green that averages about four feet tall but can grow taller in optimal environments. It is resilient--so gardeners usually mow or cut it back to keep it low. It's forgiving of this and grows back fast.
The blades are semi-glossy, green, flat, and lance-shaped with a somewhat pointed tip. It bends over from its weight as it grows tall. They have fine white hairs that add extra interest.

Appalachian Sedge - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Appalachian Sedge (Carex appalachia)
Appalachian Sedge: Carex appalachia, common name Appalachian Sedge, is a beautiful partial-shade sedge plant that adds lovely green color, intriguing fountain-like texture, and an attractive all-around appearance to your yard.
It will grow in almost any of the USDA plant hardiness zones. It is a North American native species, initially noted growing in the Appalachian mountain regions of Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and North Carolina.
Appalachian Sedge is not fussy about soil quality. While it likes consistent moisture, it also likes dry feet and is drought-tolerant. Besides the ability to bounce back from dry spells, this grass is also deer-resistant, rabbit-resistant, heat-tolerant, and cold-tolerant ornamental grass.
Where to Use Appalachian Sedge in Your Yard
Appalachian Sedge has an independent streak and does not need much care from you after you plant it. Start by selecting a semi-shaded site and plant it with soil amended with hardwood mulch. Ensure it receives about an inch of water each week.
Gardeners in the coldest growing zones should also insulate the roots with an inch or two of mulch or fallen leaves in the autumn and pull them back in the spring. However, those in more moderate temperature zones can skip this step.
Plant your Carex appalachia for beautiful results:
In mass plantings: It is stunning around the foundation, next to a shed or outbuilding, or around a mailbox.
In a shade garden: Find a spot that gets some morning sunshine.
Near a pond, creek, or water garden, ensure the roots can dry.
Groundcover planting: Fill in a blank space with this lovely textural plant.
Appalachian Sedge Is Green and Has a Beautiful Texture
Appalachian sedge is a beautiful light to medium green shade with long, thin, grassy leaves. It reaches up about a foot high, then gracefully bends. Overall, this creates a spilling or water fountain effect. It stays about a foot wide, so planting several together makes a more significant impact.

Tussock Sedge - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Tussock Sedge (Carex stricta)
Tussock Sedge: Carex stricta, aka Tussock Sedge, is a popular, perennial United States native ornamental grass. It originated in the dense forests from Missouri eastward to the Appalachians. It will flourish in full or partial sun in the moderately warm USDA plant hardiness zones.
The name tussock sedge refers to the growth pattern of this ornamental. It grows in dense, three-foot-tall, attractive tufts or tussocks. Each one measures about two feet wide.
You might also hear gardeners refer to this species as upright sedge or hummock sedge.
Where to Plant Tussock Sedge in Your Landscape
Tussock Sedge is a water-loving species. It will flourish in a high-moisture environment and will tolerate occasional flooding.
As a mountain native, the ornamental craves plenty of organic materials such as wood waste, leaf litter, or peat moss and appreciates the addition of this content when you plant it.
This plant is deer-resistant, rabbit-resistant, heat-tolerant, and cold-tolerant.
Use Carex stricta in some of these locations:
Water Garden
Rain garden
Near a pond, stream, or creek
In slow-draining meadows or fields
Accent plant
Ground cover plant
Cottage garden
The Lovely, Natural Good Looks of Tussock Sedge

The leaves are thin and narrow but surprisingly strong. They are a true medium green on the top side but a pale yellow on the opposite side. Its flowers form in the summer--small brown cylindrical heads on top of the sturdiest spikes of grass.
The flowers release seeds that help the plant spread the following season.

Soft Rush Grass - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Soft Rush Grass (Juncus effusus)
Soft Rush Grass: Juncus effusus, or soft rush grass, is a lovely perennial ornamental grass that displays a pleasing shape and beautiful, fresh green color. It grows in almost every USDA plant hardiness zone in the United States and is an easy-care species. It grows best in a mix of sun and shade. It thrives in various humidities, from standing water to drier soil.
Juncus effusus has several common names, including the following:
Common Rush
Green Bull Rush
Japanese Mat Rush
Soft Rush
Bog Rush
Where to Use Soft Rush Grass in Your Landscape
The species is native to both North America and South America. In nature, you would find it around swamps, bogs, wetlands, or marshes.
It grows in attractive clumps and spreads relatively quickly. Because it is tolerant of many environments, it is a favorite for installing in natural areas, around ponds or water features, or in a partially-shaded spot in a shade garden.
It is also helpful for preventing erosion due to soil compaction. The deep taproot will take firm hold in the soil and help to slow down water rushing across packed soils and eroding the materials. The taproot also helps to de-compact the earth from underneath as it burrows its way underground.
The Lovely Good Looks of Soft Rush Grass
Soft rush grass is equally at ease growing in standing water at the pond's edge as it is in an arid location like a mountain ledge. But even more importantly, it is as lovely to behold in either of these spots.
Juncus effusus develops into a vase shape as it grows--narrow at the bottom and widening at the top. It reaches an average full-grown height of under four feet and has lovely soft yellow flowers attracting bees to your garden.

Bushy Bluestem- Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Bushy Bluestem (Andropogon glomeratus)
Bushy Bluestem: Andropogon glomeratus, or bushy bluestem, is a tall, attractive perennial ornamental grass that will thrive in the warmer USDA plant hardiness zones.
Bushy bluestem is a North American native species. It originated adjacent to fertile southeastern forests in the Appalachian region, typically basking in the full sunshine in swamps, bogs, streams, natural springs, or other continuously moist habitats. This grass will perform beautifully in muddy spots that could smother other less wet-tolerant grasses.
Andropogon glomeratus is a low-maintenance species that does not care about soil type or quality. As long as you give it organically, woody matter like compost or hardwood mulch, or a slow-release fertilizer, it will do well.
TN Nursery suggests this ornamental for use in a slow-draining area near a pond, stream, creek, or other water feature on your property. It does not take well to dry conditions.
Where to Use Bushy Bluestem
Bushy bluestem must have a predominantly moist habitat; it is not tolerant of dryness. The good news is this--once you locate that perfect wet, sunny spot, it becomes almost maintenance-free and will grow into a tall, beautiful plant.
Plan to use Addropogon glomeratus in the following garden settings:
Koi pond
Water Garden
Near a constantly dripping or bubbling water feature
On a riverbank or next to a stream
Slow-draining depressions on your property that never seem to drain.
The Tall and Impressive Beauty of the Bushy Bluestem
This ornamental is tall--it reaches six feet wide and up to three feet wide at maturity. Each tall leaf is about a half-inch across, is fibrous, and reaches high toward the sun. In autumn, it turns a lovely copper color.
The grass forms flowers in late summer or early fall. The blooms form clusters, usually cream or tan in color, and form a unique beard shape.

In fact, this plant grows naturally from the western plains of Canada, in the entire lower 48 of the United States, and to the northern Mexican states. That large footprint is a testimony to the resilient nature of this ornamental species.
Blue grama grass prefers to bask in the full sunshine, but it will also tolerate some shade, especially in the afternoon. It is drought-tolerant and needs a mere half-inch of water each week, but it does not like overwatering. It's unfussy about soil texture or quality. However, if you are planting it in heavy or clay soil, you should de-compact it and work in some organic matter before you plant it.
Where to Use Blue Grama Grass in Your Yard
This lovely ornamental grows in attractive one- to two-foot clumps that will not overpower the good looks of your other plants. It can serve as an accent plant or plant them in mass plantings to create an eye-catching focal point.

Four Fun Home and Craft Ideas Using Acorns
Here are some inspiring ideas for decorating your house and crafting with the natural beauty of acorns:
Add acorns to a decorative potpourri bowl: Who says potpourri should only include flowers and leaves? Drop in a few acorns to give your potpourri a fresh, fun fall look.
Craft a wreath: Welcome visitors to your home for any season using seasonally-appropriate leaves and flowers but dress them up with the rich colors of acorns.
Make an acorn candle ring for your tabletop: Glue acorns around a candle ring for a lovely organic element. You can use any greenery and just one or two acorns as accents. Or, you can "go nuts" and pack them close together, making them the main feature.
Create acorn Christmas tree ornaments: Most associate acorns with autumn. But they actually drop from those tall oak trees into the early days of winter! Thread the caps carefully using an upholstery needle, dip the acorns in craft glue, roll them in metallic or colorful glitter, and shake off the excess. They are adorable and affordable to give to all your friends.

Palm Sedge - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Palm Sedge (Carex muskingumensis)
Palm sedge: Carex muskingumensis, or the palm sedge, is a lovely ornamental grass that wakes up early in the spring. As a native of the United States, the perennial species comes from the rich forests of the east coasts. Consequently, it is well-suited for the moderate USDA plant hardiness zones.
Palm sedge is also a long-lived species, with a life expectancy of about ten years. It prefers a shady spot and loves soil with high moisture content, occasional flooding, or standing water. Despite its affinity for water, it is surprisingly also drought-tolerant.
Palm Sedge is Highly Decorative and Easy to Use in Your Garden
Palm sedge is an easy-natured species with no particular soil preference. However, it benefits if you help it by de-compacting heavy or clay soils when you plant it and add some organic compost to help replenish it. This step will help nourish it in clay soil, which often lacks nutrients.
You can use palm sedge as an accent plant paired with bright flowers--the lovely shade of bright green will look beautiful. Conversely, you can plant Carex muskingumensis in large, showy groupings to create an attractive, well-textured focal point.
TN Nursery suggests a few applications for palm sedge:
Pond, water garden, or focal point near a water feature
Rain garden
Native species garden
Near a creek or stream
Shade garden
Regardless of where you install this ornamental, it will add vibrant and lively color.
Palm Sedge Enlivens Shady Areas
Adding color to a shady spot can present a challenge. However, the bright yellow-green palm sedge makes great color look almost effortless.
The plant can be as tall as three feet, but it will tolerate cutting to keep it well-controlled. Leaves form from an erect central stem, measuring at least six inches long and forming a lance shape with a tapered end.
The cream or tan feathery flowers appear throughout the summer.

River Oats - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
River Oats (Chasmanthium latifolium)
River Oats: Chasmanthium latifolium, or river oats, are a North American native, perennial grass species that will perform best in partial sunshine in the warmer USDA plant hardiness zones.
In particular, they flourish in the warm, humid climate of the southeastern United States. This species is forgiving and resilient: deer-resistant; drought-tolerant; disease-resistant; pest-resistant; and unconcerned about soil type or quality. They love wet but well-drained soil that will let the roots dry out once in a while.
They grow naturally in flood plains, bottomlands, river valleys, on the banks of swamps, marshes, and ponds, and along streams and creeks.
Replicating these growing conditions in landscape planning, gardeners find river oats useful in these locations:
In the filtered sunlight near a pond, water garden, or other water feature
To prevent erosion in a slow-draining natural area
Near a creek or stream on a property
River Oats Provide Casual Good Looks in Your Garden
Chasmanthium latifolium has a noteworthy feature that gives it a distinct appearance--droopy seed heads that appear to "nod off" as if it is ready for a nap. They sway along on their green and smooth stems, even with the slightest breeze.
This native grass is clumping, erect, and easy to grow--each clump becomes up to two feet wide. It will reach a mature height of up to five feet.
The leaves are long and narrow--almost nine inches long and an inch wide. They put on an ever-changing display of color throughout the year. In the spring, they emerge bright green; they'll turn golden tan in the summer; fall brings a burgundy, copper, or purple hue; in winter, river oats leaves turn copper or brown.

Broomsedge - Package of 25 Plants
$79.99
Broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus)
Broomsedge: Andropogon virginicus, common name broomsedge, is an ornamental, perennial sedge grass. It's a native species originating in North America as far north as Maryland and Virginia, all of Central America, and South America as far south as Venezuela.
This stately sedge grass requires full sunshine, especially in the morning. It also loves highly moist soils. It's a fantastic addition to add a lovely visual element near a pond, water garden, or creek bank.
Broomsedge is lovely as meadow grass and a fast-growing species with more than just decorative value.
This grass takes its name from its traditional function. Historically, people let the green grass fade to tan in the fall, dry, and then harvest it. They would bundle their bounty at the end of a stick, fashioning them into a broom.
That also explains its alternate common names, broom straw grass or old-field broom straw grass.
Broomsedge Can Help Manage Soil Erosion
Some gardeners choose brooms edge for its lovely appearance and golden tones in the fall.
However, others plant it to cope with soil erosion, especially near areas in which flooding occurs. Broomsedge is a fast-growing plant with a spreading habit of as much as ten inches per growing season. That means its sprawling root system can take hold of the earth and help cover it quickly, protecting against two primary causes of erosion--wind and water.
The Interesting Good Looks of Broomsedge
Broom straw grass can reach up to four feet tall and approximately a foot wide in a single season. The grass blades are tall, thin, and a pleasant green early in the season; during the late summer, the color changes to a blue or purple and then fades to a golden yellow. It also develops feathery, fluffy orange flowers in autumn.
Many people let broom straw grass remain in place throughout the winter to add color to an otherwise dreary landscape.
Order Your Broomsedge From TN Nursery Today
Broomsedge is a lovely species that adds a touch of golden color around your pond or garden during the winter. Please order your broom straw grass from TN Nursery today.

Mountain Sedge Is Easy to Manage
Mountain Sedge is an easy-to-manage size, reaching about eighteen inches tall and twelve inches wide at maturity. If you want to keep it low, you may cut it back--it doesn't mind!
