Jade Prince Dawn Redwood Metasequoia glyptostroboides JFS-PN3Legacy Zone: 5 Height: 70' Spread: 25' Shape: Upright, pyramidal Foliage: Bright green, deciduous needles Fall Color: Rusty orange Lush, feathery spring foliage matures to rich, fresh green in summer.

Mesa Glow Maple Acer grandidentatum JFS-NuMex 3 P.A.F. Zone: 4 Height: 28' Spread: 18' Shape: Upright oval Fall Color: Orange red to red Drought tolerance, cold hardiness and adaptability make this upright selection of the native bigtooth maple a top choice for the intermountain West.

Mesa Glow Maple Evening Light Snowbell Styrax japonicus Evening Light PP24168 Zone: 5 Height: 15' Spread: 10' Shape: Upright, oval Foliage: Dark purple Flower: White Glossy deep purple foliage is unique among snowbells, providing a dramatically dark backdrop for fragrant white, bell shaped flowers that appear in June. With adequate soil moisture, some reblooming will occur. Evening Light Snowbell City Slicker Birch Betula nigra Whit XXV PP16573 Zone: 5 Height: 35' Spread: 25' Shape: Broadly pyramidal Foliage: Glossy dark green Fall Color: Yellow Unusually white bark of this true river birch rivals that of B. papyrifera and other whitebarked beauties. Glossy dark green foliage shines though the growing season, and then turns golden yellow. From a native stand in Oklahoma, it shows increased tolerance of heat and drought. City Slicker Birch Colonial Spirit Elm Colonial Spirit Elm Ulmus americana JFS-Prince II Zone: 4 Height: 65' Spread: 50' Shape: Vase shaped with arching limbs Fall Color: Yellow Disease Tolerance: Dutch Elm Disease Strong branch structure is manageable in both the nursery and the landscape, resulting in a symmetrically vase shaped tree of classic American elm form. This survivor of Dutch Elm Disease has proven tolerant by surviving controlled testing.
Autumn Treasure Hophornbeam Ostyra virginiana JFS-KW5 Zone: 4 Height: 40' Spread: 20' Shape: Upright pyramidal to oval Fall Color: Golden yellow At last, a hophornbeam suited for city living. Predictably upright narrow form facilitates uniform street tree plantings. Unlike many trees of seedling origin that hold brown leaves throughout the winter, fall leaf drop is clean and complete.
