If given the choice, would you plant a bald cypress tree or a tulip poplar tree? I am going to plant some new trees to replace the Trees of Heaven I successfully killed and had removed. (They are an invasive species, so never plant them.) Anyway, I have a big back yard and I like both of these types of tree, but I personally prefer a broad leaf tree. Bald Cypress trees do very well in my area of Kansas. There are some Tulip Poplar trees around that are also doing very well. I can't seem to decide. If given the choice would you plant a bald cypress tree or a tulip poplar tree?

My bald cypress bonsai is wilting!? Hey all. Yesterday I purchased a small Bald Cypress bonsai from my local nursery. The tree was in the greenhouse of the nursery. I brought it home and did nothing but keep it in the shade. Today I looked at it and noticed the leader is wilting! So I placed a saucer full of water under the tree and the pot to hopefully get humidity up. It has been very hot here. Could a lack of humidity, and a sudden change from out of a greenhouse be the problem? If not, how can I fix it? Or will the water tray underneath it fix it? Thanks! I have it outdoors in the shade. But I think I fixed it. I placed a tray of water under the pot and the tree has perked up already. I will leave the tray there to help with humidity.

Are Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum) cones edible ? The Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum), specifically the cultivar known as Monarch of Illinois grows locally. Since Cypress and Juniper are related, is it possible to use the cones from the Bald Cypress as a substitute for Juniper berries in cooking recipes? Other than the fact that edible products from pine trees can potentially cause miscarriages, is there anything else to be aware of? Oh! And by edible, I don't mean munch on it like popcorn, but rather use it like one would use a bay leaf or cinnamon stick. More of a flavoring and something you'd eat.
What Garden stores sell bonsai soil? I'm starting a Bald Cypress Tree and I need one that can hold a little water
what do you think of my book so far...it's just started but be honest please.? The Spanish moss danced in the wind beckoning me to play with it as I stared out of the window of my father’s Dodge magnum. The air smelled of sweet olive trees and swamp water it was a surprisingly light smell like lilac and honeysuckle. The paved road turned to gravel and a bald cypress tree reached for me as if to try and stop my journey. Sorry little buddy… tried that already I thought looking over my shoulder at him. I wasn’t thrilled about returning to my mother and Tomas after 7 years of no communication. Indigo Court was written in blue letters on a handmade sign as we turned onto a dirt road that ran beside the blood river. Staring at the deep green water I shuddered and tried not to think about the reason I had left so many years ago. My mother’s 2 story cottage seemed huge in comparison to the image that I had burned into my skull at 9 years old. The wraparound porch was lined with rocking chairs that looked all too welcome and a bridge that lead to the huge deck Tomas had built. I stared at the house in awe…if I didn’t know better I would have sworn it let out a sigh of relief when I stepped out of the car. A ray of sunlight broke thru the tress and sparkled on the green tin roof that had kept me awake with the rhythm of raindrops as a small girl. Whether I liked it or not this place was home now. My mother had two huge weeping willow trees guarding her walkway with their drooping branches. The stone walkway had been swept clean by the wind. I turned to stare one last time into my father’s stern brown eyes. He didn’t have to say a word they said it all for him. The last 2 years had been rough for us. He being a soldier was harder on me than he would ever know. He had sprung the information of reenlistment on me 3 days ago over dinner. He was going to be doing a tour in Europe and didn’t think I needed to go with him “you need some time with your mother” was his only response to my failed bargaining attempts. I held my breath as I watched the silver handles on the French doors slowly turn unleashing her. Adelaide came busting toward me her once raven black hair a whirlwind of salt and pepper. Her pretty face was set off with green eyes as fierce as my own. She swept me into her clutches and wept into my long red hair. Looking at the contrast of my smooth pale skin to her more olive complexion…I asked myself if I was really hers. I stared past her at Tomas…poor portly Tomas. He was 10 years younger than my mother and twice her size. His short 5’3 frame held at least 290lbs...But momma loved him and that was all that mattered at least that is what she told me. He had a drinking problem and loved to push me over my non existence edge. Grabbing my bags she led me up into the house that smelt of baby powder and Lysol. Her bamboo floors were still clean and polished. The stark white walls were home to black and white photographs. Tomas carried my bags upstairs as mother led me to the formal living room. The cathedral ceiling was framed with several windows that were from floor to ceiling letting in an abundant about of sunlight. The windows were clothed in black and gold sheer curtains with lampshades to match. A huge black leather wrap around sofa hugged the far right corner of the room. A few leather seats graced the room here and there. The thing that caught me more than anything was the granite fireplace. It was neat and clean like it had always been…I made a personal goal then and there that I would have a fire in it before things were said and done.

Swamp? Dead Oak Trees? Ive just had a really strange and scary dream, here is the part i need translating: I saw trees falling down, then all of a sudden, i was at a swamp much like this one: http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/pwdpubs/pwd_bn_w7000_0120/images/lrg_bald_cypress_swamp.jpg Yet the trees were all broken and half-dead looking (oak trees) and there were branches everywhere (large chunks of tree), one of them (or maybe two) was cut down fully and was on its side. I had to get across the swamp water by swimming to the other side which was quite far away, yet i curled up on the ground in fear because the sight of all the branches and dead messy looking trees scared me and i started to tremble on the ground. The water was a dirty greenish colour, and the scenery was dark, very large (the place was massive) and miserable. Id love it if anyone could translate this for me, it would be great, Thanks! Edit: The trees were overly large with thick trunks Edit: Sorry about the link not working EDIT: The tree that had been fully cut down, hadn't been cut down, it was just on its side with the root hanging everywhere as though it had been blown out of the ground
Does anyone know any good brokers for trees? i have 2 to 5" caliper Bald Cypress that need to be sold thousands
