Today, September 30th, 16 public trees are being planted on Morningside Road. The company in charge of the tree planting is
Northern Nurseries from Somerset, NJ. Humberto, pictured here driving the fork lift, explained to me that these are October Glory Maples and that all the trees are being installed with previews authorization from homeowners. October Glory Maple Trees quickly mature into a pleasing oval shape and are ideal landscaping trees that require minimal attention. The description below is from
arborday.orgA very fast-growing Red Maple cultivar. This ever-popular maple should be considered as a beautiful shade tree addition to any yard. Glistening dark green leaves in spring, summer turn radiant red late fall and last several weeks. Tiny, conspicuous red flowers bloom in spring. Showy red fruit attract many birds and other wildlife. Grows 40'-50' high with a 25'-35' spread. Tolerant of many soils, but prefers slightly acid and moist conditions. Plant in partial shade to full sun.
I applaud Verona homeowners and authorities for improving the environment and beautifying our town by planting these 16 trees!

ReplyDeleteHurray! This is good news for all of us in the community, and I'm so happy to hear it. October Glory trees are a great choice (thank goodness they didn't plant flowering pear trees...). Thank you to everyone who made this happen.
