IPN Weather

The weather here at IPN is just plain crazy! It's 70 degrees outside right now, thought about putting the boat in the water...


I was out tagging trees this week and I have to say there is a lot of nice material out there. Some of my favorites were the Thuja 'Emerald', Quercus 'Green Pillar', Acer 'Red Pointe' and all the Cornus, just to name a few. Speaking of the Cornus... They were loaded with buds already!

IPN's Fall color!

Fall is here and you can definitely tell by the beautiful reds, oranges and golds in the nursery. It's a great time to plant and dig! Get your gardens and customers happy in Spring from all their gorgeous fall plantings.
