Canadian Hemlock 5 ft potted

Canadian hemlock (Tsuga canadensis), also called eastern hemlock, is a member of the pine family and native to North America. You’ll see the trees in the wild growing on woody slopes, rocky ridges, and river valleys from eastern Canada south to Georgia and Alabama. They have a slow to medium growth rate of up to 24 inches (61 cm.) a year, maturing to 50 to 70 feet (15-21 m.) tall and 25 feet (8 m.) wide. Don’t worry about their roots. According to Canadian hemlock tree facts, the roots are not likely to invade pipes or raise sidewalks. If you are hesitant to plant this tree because you know hemlock is poisonous, stop worrying. No part of the Canadian hemlock is poisonous. The poisonous hemlocks you have heard about are perennial plants in the parsley family.
