Nice variety of conifers Dave!
The Chamaecyparis thyoides and the Cupressus aren't suitable for your zone.

Why did you graft 2 scions of the Pinus strobus 'Angel Falls' on 1 understock while it's a strong weeping tree form, I would have graft each scion on a differend understock...

Can you tell me some background info about the Picea pungens 'Last Find' and Picea glauca 'Ketch Harbor'?
Thanks!

Hi Edwin, the thyoides will probably be removed if it doesn't improve by this fall.
I did lose a few Cupressus arizonica seedlings over the winter, but the larger specimens seem to be doing fine.
It is possible for them to do OK here, like this C. arizonica 'Observatory' at the Denver Botanic Gardens.

'Ketch Harbor' was discovered in Nova Scotia, where there is a town by that name. The link below has more info on 'Last Find'.
