  Trees and Shrubs  
Mitchell's sells a large variety of trees and shrubs
Mitchell's grows one of the largest selections of trees and shrubs in North Carolina		 We grow one of the largest selections of trees
and shrubs in the North Carolina Triad area. Our plants are well suited for this region. We will also consult you on the planting and caring of your trees and shrubs

Mitchell's can help you design a custom landscape plan to suit you and your house. Just make an appointment and bring by measurements of the outside of your house, including window height and width; pictures help.

Fall, winter, and early spring is the best time to plant trees and shrubs. The roots get a chance to grow out before it gets too hot and dry in the summer, which is less stressful on the plant.

Thank you for helping our Poinsettia Open House to be a great success. We have collected the ballots from the poinsettia trial voting and posted the results – click on the link below. We are one of two commercial greenhouses in the state to hold poinsettia trials. The information gathered each year helps the national poinsettia breeders decide which poinsettias they will release to the market in the future. Don’t forget to mark your new calendar for December 2, 2012 for next year’s open house. It will be from 12:30-4:30.
