I've Been Planting!

Post by Midnight Reiter Too »

I've planted a tiny white spruce and a Petite Delight bee balm this weekend. I did some weeding and mulching and lots of watering. It's a gorgeous day out there --- sunny and breezy.

Does anyone know if white spruces take a long time to grow?

Spruces?

Spruce.

It's like two deers in the headlights :o

I planted a 5 footer five years back and it is over 20' tall.

I was wondering if it was spruce or spruces! I should have said "spruce trees" to play it safe. :lol:

Well, it sounds like I won't have to wait forever for my tiny tree to grow. I'm no spring chicken, so I was curious.
