Consider an Oak Tree for that someone special. Oak trees are long-lived so your gift will be remembered and cherished for many years. New Mexico is home to numerous native oak tree species. Some are fast growing, up to 4’ per year, while others are slow, maybe 12” per season. Amongst the New Mexico Native oaks are evergreens including the Gray Oak which can reach 40’-45’ tall and wide. Looking for color? Consider the Chisos Red Oak, fast growing, with a mature canopy of up to 35’-40’ tall and wide. The Chisos Red Oak produces a magnificent red-maroon fall color which is a rare find amongst native New Mexico tree species. Trees That Please Nursery has discounted all our Oak Trees 25%. For example, our 5 gallon Oaks are regularly $39 but with a 25% discount they are only $29.25 before taxes which makes them a very affordable gift. Larger Oaks in 15 gallon containers or Root Control Bags are also available and discounted! A partial listing of the Oaks we propagate

The Desert Christmas Cholla ( Cylindropuntia leptocaulis ) produces small fruits which turn red or red-orange during winter, typically in December. To some these colored fruits resemble small Christmas ornaments. The Desert Christmas Cholla, a New Mexico Native, has slender stems and grows to about 2’ to 3’ tall and wide. This cholla is best grown in full sun on well-drained soils with only occasional watering. It produces cream colored flowers and is Hardy to USDA zone 6. Trees That Please Nursery propagates the Desert Christmas Cholla and has them available in 1 or 5 gallon containers. The Desert Christmas Cholla  makes a great Christmas Gift and addition to the low water – low maintenance landscape. Photos and Narrative By: Steve Sain Staff Plant Physiologist

Another benefit, but not the only benefit of the mycorrhizal fungi No Till relationship is that of 'Humic Recalcitrant Carbon Molecule'  production in the soil.  That's the stuff that's black in color and which gives a top soil its characteristic darker color.  It's also the stuff that by bad habit the entire industry generically calls humic acids .   The term humic acid (or acids) does not describe specific molecular structures and the term does not follow the rules of chemistry nomenclature.  However since our State Regulatory offices use this old fashion term and have very vague methods of measuring the stuff, we are stuck with using the term for now.    When Nature builds these amazing carbon molecules, or you supplement them by adding soil conditioners such as TerraPro by Soil Secrets, the molecules involved play a huge role in building macro-aggregate structure.  This is caused by the polarity value of the molecules causing a 'mechanism of action' ( M

The concept of no-till is to favor the proliferation of mycorrhizal fungal roots on the roots of the crop.  The mycorrhizae produce a vast network of fungus roots called hyphae that are microscopic, however they are of critical importance in holding the soil structure together in what we call macro-aggregate structure.   They are also responsible for many other benefits to the host plant, but for now let’s stick to the soil structure benefit.  The slide below shows this soil fungal hyphae relationship.  When we plow or till soil we clobber this relationship, making it difficult for mycorrhizal fungi to perpetuate in an agricultural setting for very long, resulting in most agriculture crops not being mycorrhizal.  This includes organic farms as well!  Beyond the physical characteristic of the fungal hyphae gluing the soil macro-aggregate structure together, the hyphae also contain huge amounts of Nitrogen, which potentially is the single largest contributor of that element

Why not decorate a Living Christmas Tree this Holiday Season? Buy a potted Pine or Spruce for your holiday tree this season and enjoy it's wonderful scent!  Then after the holidays plant your tree permanently outside and enjoy it for years to come. It can be decorated outdoors each holiday season so you'll get seasonal enjoyment every year! The Nursery has several Christmas tree varieties available including: Austrian Black Pines, Bosnian Pine, Scotch Pine, Colorado Blue Spruce, and Black Hills Spruce . Different container sizes are available also so there is probably one that will fit your space.... Care is simple! Basically keep your potted Christmas tree watered while in the drying home environment. After the Holidays remember to re-acclimate your tree to the cold outdoor temperatures before permanently planting. This is a requirement to help your trees survival outdoors because if the tree was inside for an extended time, like 2-3 weeks, it may come

The Chisos Red Oak, a native to New Mexico, makes a great landscaping specimen, and are hardy enough for our frigid winter temperatures. The Chisos Red Oak is a fast growing tree with a canopy of up to 30’-35’ tall and 25’-30’ wide. It can grow as much as 4’ per season and has deep roots so can be placed fairly close to structures like sidewalks, driveways, walls, or even your home. Leaves turn a brilliant red-maroon in fall. Leaves usually remain on the trees into spring sporting a chocolate brown color. The photo below shows Chisos Red Oak foliage on a frigid 17 degree morning with heavy frost! Trees That Please Nursery grows the Chisos Red Oak from acorns collected from wild populations. We have them available in 5 and 15 gallon container sizes ready for late fall and winter planting.
