Plant Library: Trees

At Payne’s Nurseries, we divide our trees into three categories: fruit, shade and ornamental so that you can find the information you’re looking for quickly. Of course an ornamental tree can also offer shade and a shade tree can be ornamental.

We consider the fastest growing shade trees to be Cottonwood, Willow and Silver Maple.
