Anyone recommend some colourful garden trees?

[Freedom_Spark]

Hi all, our house is right on the edge of a forest we have lots o

lovely green trees but we'd like to add some trees of differen colours, about 8 medium sized trees in total, any recommendations

Kousa Dogwood Stewardia Franklinia Magnolia Crab apple Cherry Dogwood Pine

Prunus

This will get you going but the best is to visit a garden an look about. Take Pen & Paper & camera. Spring summer fall and winter are issues too.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, you've been very helpful

Yes - you will certainly get fruit this year. Get them into growbags o the ground as soon as possible, feed weekly, and you will be inundate with tomatoes. With 20 plants you will probably be begging people t take them

With 20 plants, there won't be a neighbor left that will speak by the end of the season!! :-)

Learn to can the tomatoes, keep them for yourself. Homemade spaghetti sauce and tomato juice, yum yum. 20 plants is just about right.

Enjoy Life ... Dan

That's great guys, thanks. You're right I'll probably be giving tomatoe

to every neighbour in a ten mile radius. Actually judging by the usua rate of tomato consumption at our house that might not be necessary
