Looking for larger more mature tree. One or two with installation

Ducotes Tree Farm in Livonia if you are serious about mature trees. Pricey, but gives you a big head start.

Just curious what’s the ballpark and how big of trees are you talking?

Plant Tech on old Jefferson. Great people and very knowledgeable

I don’t really have an answer. Just know I don’t want a starter. Just started thinking about getting 1 or 2. Do you have a suggestion on a good size that won’t break the bank?

I got three great trees I need to get out. They are pretty close to the slab so I don’t think removing them without damage is feasible.

That’s to bad. They will probably go to waste. Have you looked into having them removed? I wonder if tI hey can do it with that machine the use to dig the hole

Depends on how close. Crape Myrtles are like a weed. They don't need much to survive.

No but that machine would not be able to clear the slab
Posted on 7/4/20 at 3:05 pm to djangochained
Those look like the kind I want. Are they single cane?

That close to the slab is going to be very difficult to get roots out without damaging concrete. Especially that one further away.

No I’m looking at buying a few in the 9-10 foot range. Just curious what they go for.

Just looked at Plant tech in BR. 15 gal was $150 and 30 gallon $300.
