Northline Saskatoon
Has it all! A nice habit of growth that's not too tall (8-10ft.) Absolutely superb fruit quality with a large berry size and that wonderful saskatoon flavour we all know and love! Great yields even from small younger bushes. We strongly feel that the Northline Saskatoon should be well represented in any orchard or home garden.
Canada Red Chokecherry
The Canada Red Chokecherry is a very hardy chokecherry that can be grown as an attractive bush or small tree. Its deep red leaves make it a truly striking shelterbelt! This greatly improved variety produces very large, high quality fruit which is outstanding for use in jellies, wines and syrup. Whether used for shelterbelts or as a garden ornamental, its beautiful burgundy foliage will add colour, texture and striking contrast to your landscape.
Evans Cherry
We are thrilled to offer the Evans Cherry. We picked "buckets" here at The Saskatoon Farm in 2001. An easy fast growing tree that prefers a drier location. An outstanding cherry that rivals BC cherries in size and quality! Grows to a height of about 12 ft. The Evans Cherry is extremely hardy and produces large clusters of big sweet cherries which are wonderul to eat or make pie fillings, jams, jellies or even syrup! We know that the Evans Cherry will delight you for many years!
Swedish Aspen
This is a delightful narrow tree. Great for shelterbelts or privacy screens, or a landscape specimen. Grows to 35 feet. For tight shelter belts plant 3 to 4 feet apart. Very fast growing and versatile that will grow in a wide variety of soils and moisture conditions.
Colorado Spruce
The Colorado Spruce is the most widely planted prairie favourite! Drought tolerant. 60 to 70% blue. These are nice little field grown trees that are ideally suited for transplanting to our prairie soil.
Ponderosa Pine
We are very proud and excited to offer you these great trees this year! Our Ponderosa Pine seedlings are nothing short of fantastic and we guarantee you'll be delighted with our excellent chinook tolerant, prairie hardy strain. Our seed is collected right here in sunny Alberta. These trees are very rare and are 100% hardy. The most beautiful of the prairie hardy pines with outstanding long needles up to 20cm.
White Spruce
These great White Spruce trees are already branching! Ideal for shelterbelts and landscaping. This is the spruce native to our Rockies.
