Hi, My husband and I will be moving to the Maryville area soon. We will need to plant some trees for shade around our house...especially for our deck. Anyone have any suggestions for "medium"growth rate shade or ornamental trees?

Mtzinia,

If you happen to see this, your post seems to have gotten misposted to this thread. I would have written to tell you, but you have your email contact through your member page turned off.

...and, speaking of the East Tennessee Plant Swap, the next one will be held on October 6, 2012 at New Harvest Park. (yes, we were finally able to get reservations worked out at New Harvest).
