Image JPEG image Purple plants
Figs 1-3. 'Deborah' Norway maple is the most majestic purple-leaf tree for landscapes in North Dakota; 'Schubert' chokecherry is an eye-catching small tree; and 'Center Glow' ninebark is a tough, beautiful shrub.
Image JPEG image Rock mulch
This burning bush got burned to death (excuse the pun) in a bed of rock mulch. The birch at right suffered from heat generated by rock mulch, which contributed to a severe infestation of bronze birch borer.
Image JPEG image Shredded bark mulch
The right and wrong ways to mulch a tree. Left: Place minimal mulch at the trunk and gradually build it to a depth of up to 4 inches around the perimeter. Right: Avoid accumulating mulch near the trunk since this leads to trunk rot and attracts rodents that nest in the mulch and feed on the bark.

Image JPEG image Leafcutter bee
Figs. 1–3. A female leafcutter bee makes a circular cut in 10 seconds and uses the tissue to line its nesting cavity. Damage to the plant is minimal. Leafcutter bees are outstanding pollinators and may be attracted into nesting tubes.

Figs. 1, 2. These balled-and-burlapped trees can lose 95 percent of their feeding roots in the transplanting process. They will be in shock for several years. A common malady is scorching of leaves.
