Anniversary Trees
They're here! These autumn blaze maples will grow about 20-30 more feet to reach their full grown height of 40-50 feet. Three feet of growth a year = lots of dense shade in our backyard and a nice screen from the horse farm (which we love) in case the farm ever sells to a builder. The root balls weigh about 600 lbs a piece and it was amazing to watch these lovely things get placed in the yard. Originally, we thought these trees were 12-15 feet tall, but the 2 delivery men said "Oh, no, 20 feet easily!" YIKES!

Nice trees! That was a good anniversary idea, and you pulled a nice deal on it too. =) Good work Ohio Schwartzes. So did it take a long time to dig the holes?
