For
thirty years, Northlake Christmas Trees and Nursery has been growing Christmas
trees for the choose and cut market and propagating and growing nursery stock
for larger nurseries, garden centers and the local landscape businesses. Originally,
Christmas trees were planted in 1981 which included white pine, Virginia pine
and Eastern red cedar. Through years of trial and error, successes and failures,
some species have been discontinued, others retained, and several species
of spruce and fir varieties have been added to the collection. Included in
the holiday tree sales are customized real wreaths mixed with many evergreen
types to produce a tradition that has been around for years. Growing landscape
plants is a major part of our business today.
Many varieties of plant material from broadleaf, flowering, deciduous, and
conifer species are propagated and grown for eventual sale to larger nurseries
and garden centers. In production are one, three, five, and ten gallon pots
available depending upon the species and variety. Added to the pot production
are one gallon pines, spruces, firs and hemlocks for Christmas tree growers
who prefer a good rooted plant when field planting. These varieties include
Scotch pine and Norway and white spruce. We have added Canaan, Concolor and
Turkish firs. In addition to the nursery and Christmas trees are scenic walks
around the lake, arboretum, and into the wooded trails. These are in experimental
stages with hopes of offering these fir selections soon. Field grown Norway
spruce, white spruce, and blue spruce will be available soon.
