Before you tackle your weekend landscape project check out this garden quick tip! Jeffrey talks about selecting specimen evergreens for containers while stressing the importance for reading plant labels for EACH cultivar. Save yourself time and headache by knowing the mature height and growth rate of your evergreens. Jeffrey discusses the selection of a Silveray Korean Pine tree (Pinus koraiensis ‘Silveray’) for a rooftop garden in NYC.

Check out the video at:

Have you made the mistake of not reading the label carefully? Were you ever tempted to bring home a plant that looked so good at the nursery only to find out you couldn't find a proper home for it in the garden? Share your experience!
