Awesome stuff! Thanks, Nate.
I hope you got some scions while you were there...?

Thanks for the tour Nate!

Some corrections which you can pass to the staff of this Arboretum:
Juniperus chinensis 'Daub's Frosted'
This is not a true Juniperus chinensis cultivar and must be written as
Juniperus x pfitzeriana 'Daub's Frosted'

Juniperus x pfitzeriana is a cross between Juniperus chinensis and Juniperus sabina.

Pinus flexilis 'Cesarini Blue'
This cultivar belongs to another species, namely Pinus reflexa.

Pinus koraiensis 'Winton'
The one at the pic isn't this plant, it's a Pinus koraiensis 'Nana' which you're showing us.
In this case also the witches'broom at Gee Farms wasn't found on a 'Winton', but on a 'Nana'.
Somethimes it's labeled as 'Winton Gee Broom' which isn't correct, it's now Pinus koraiensis 'K.G.'.
The typical characteristic for the 'Nana' are it's greenish needles, a dwarfish growing habit and a leader.

The 'Winton' is not a true Pinus koraiensis but a cross between Pinus koraiensis and Pinus pumila.
It's needles are blue/grey and does have a bushy growing habit.

I am an hour and a quarter from Morton Arboretum. Why do I never go there? Thanks for the photos and the guilt trip.

Did you notice if those tree signs are engraved plastic?

I ask for two reasons:

Long ago, I engraved plastic/jewlry/trophies (part time) during college.

Certian types of plastic, when engraved, would make excellent outdoor tree signs/tags, but I don't see many places using it.

I can't tell if that's stick on or engraved.

Sam, Edwin, Greenhaven, and Hogmanay, glad you enjoyed these!

No scion collection this time Sam, although they've got some nice material there.

Edwin, thanks for these corrections, I will forward them along.

Hogmanay, I don't know if those are engraved plastic, here are close ups of a couple more pine signs.

Picea orientalis 'Bergman's Gem'

Nice photos, thanks. I particularly like the Picea torano, Picea omorika 'Pimoko', and the abies specimens. 'Blau Zwo' is fantastic!

Can you remind us again what was the approximate date these were taken?

Thanks Maple Grove! This was late March.
