“To the great tree-loving fraternity we belong. We love trees with universal and unfeigned love,

and all things that do grow under them or around them - the whole leaf and root tribe.”

The story of Kobes Nurseries begins in the Netherlands, with a family passionate about plants. Following the tradition of the two generations before him, Henk Kobes began pur-suing a career in horticulture. Upon graduating from the Royal Horticultural College in Boskoop, Holland in 1951, he immigrated to Canada and soon found work in his chosen fi eld. He spent the fi rst ten years in his new country working in the garden centre and landscape industry.

In the early 1960s, while working for Rundle Garden Centre in Oshawa, Henk began grow-ing nursery stock part-time on rented land. In 1963 he ventured out on his own and found-ed Henk Kobes Nursery Ltd. Eventually he purchased 27 acres on Old Scugog Road, just north of Bowmanville, site of the current Kobes Nurseries. His focus was growing and sell-ing quality woody plants to the garden centre and landscape trade. Henk’s son, Ben, would later enter the business, following the example set by his father.

Like Henk, Ben Kobes entered the nursery business gradually. At the age of 18, he began learning the business at nurseries in Ontario and British Columbia. He followed his on-the-job training with studies in horticulture, which he completed in 1985. Ben then started growing his own stock on rented land. While he began building his business growing shrubs and evergreens, Henk gradually sold off his stock while continuing to grow shade trees. Ben later took over the shade trees as his father entered retirement, and incorporated his own business, Kobes Nurseries Inc., in 1997.

Kobes Nurseries has been growing steadily ever since. Ben purchased his fi rst 88-acre farm to start the business, adding 100 acres in 2000, 150 acres in 2004 and 98 acres in 2013. The services he provided grew in tandem with the expanding acreage. A delivery service was added. In an effort to fi ll all of his customers’ needs for standard and speciality items, he began sourcing material from other nurseries and greenhouses. In addition to fi eld-grown shade trees, shrubs, and evergreens, he increased the offerings of his business to include container-grown shrubs and evergreens, perennials, grasses and vines.

In the spring of 2013, Ben’s son Adam joined the business full time after completing his studies in both horticulture and entrepreneurship.

Kobes Nurseries has a proud heritage, as family tradition and the modern approach of new generations combine to provide high-quality product and excellent customer service.

Tree Planting Hints & Tips

Ideally plants should be planted right away. If there is a delay in planting protect your plants from moisture loss by storing them in a shady area, protected from wind and ensure the roots stay moist.

Whether the plant comes with the roots in a ball & burlap, wire basket or fi ber pot, the plant should be planted with the containment materials still around the roots. Using the sizing charts on the following page as a guideline, dig an appropriate sized hole for your plant. Remove all ties on the trunk of the plant and place the contained root ball in the hole. When planting ball and burlap arrange the burlap and ropes so they are folded over and out of sight, for wire baskets push the handles down. Fiber pots should be planted once slits are carefully made in the pot and the rim removed so the top of the pot is level with the soil.

Watering the roots throughly before placing the root ball in the hole and after the hole has been back-fi lled encourages a deep root system. Holes should be backfi lled with a mixture of soil, peat moss and manure. Finally mulch can be added to help maintain the mositure in the soil and impede weed growth.

Plant Spacing GuidelinesSpacing is measured from the centre of the plant.

12cm (4”) pots of the following should be planted approximately 30cm (12”) apart: Ajuga, Bunchberry, Ferns, Goutweed, Lamium, Lily of the Valley, Sweet Woodruff, Thyme, Viola.

12cm (4”) pots of the following should be planted approximately 30cm – 40cm (12 – 16”) apart: Daylil-ies, Euonymus, Ivy, Lysimachia, Pachysandra, Sedum, Vinca.

1 gal pots of the following should be planted approximately 45cm – 61cm (18 – 24”) apart: Daylilies, Euonymus, Hosta, Ivy.

White cedar (Thuja occidentalis) is one of the most common plants used to create a hedge or natural screen. It is a native plant, grown on plantations and offers an affordable green alternative to tradi-tional fencing.

Contrary to popular belief cedars do not attract mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are naturally attracted to cool, shady, damp areas with still air and standing water, in nature this type of environment is often populated with cedars, hence the association between the two. If you remove those lowland / wetland characteristics then you also remove the factors that attract mosquitoes.

How many cedars do you need?

Generally for cedars with a height of 3’ to 6’ you would plant one cedar per foot. In the height range of 7’ to 9’ you would plant one cedar for every foot and a half and anything 10’ and above one cedar per every 2‘ or possibly more depending on how large of a height you purchase. Cedars that are very tall actually take longer to establish themselves when planted (thus will be slower to start growing) so take that into consider when deciding what height you would like to start with.When Planting Cedars….

Cedars come with roots clumped in soil; they are not a true bare root plant (which is when no dirt is transferred with the roots). They are light weight, easy to move, but should be handled gently when transferring and planting as broken or cracked branches will brown and die. Cedars will naturally have some browning in the fall; this is to be expected and is part of the seasonal cycle of the plant and is not the same as browning caused by damage.

Scenario One: In Clay Soil (often found in new subdivisions)

Dig a trench 12” deep and 18” wide and dispose of the clay soil.With a combination of good quality triple mix mixed with compost, backfi ll the trench a few

inches, estimating the quantity of backfi ll so that once placed in the trench, the cedar root ball will be level with the original grade of the ground.

Add 2lbs of bonemeal per 10 linear feet on top of the backfi lled soil.Stand the cedars upright into the trench, arranging them as close together as possible.Finally backfi ll the remainder of the trench with the triple mix and compost combination,

fi rmly stepping in the soil around the roots as you fi ll.

Scenario Two: Good Soil

Dig trench 6” deep, turn over the soil and mix in compost.Use one bag of compost per 10’ of soil.Follow the same directions starting at step 2 in Scenario One using your existing soil.

GrowthCedar hedging can grow up to 20’ high and 8’ wide; however with annual pruning you can control them to a minimum height of 30” tall by 2’ wide. With proper care and planting, you can expect your cedars to grow up to a foot per year, after the second year planted and your hedge will live anywhere from 30 to 60 years dependant on conditions and care.

Hedging Cedar Hints & Tips

WateringWater your newly planted cedars well, approximately 5 minutes per 10 linear feet. During the fi rst year continue to water your cedars once a week for the same duration, making adjustments for rain. Late in the fall, water your cedars heavily one last time to prevent winter damage and plant heaving.

FertilizingWhen you fi rst plant new cedars it is ideal to fertilize them 3 times, with a 2 week interval between each application, using a 12-35-12 Transplanter fertilizer. At the end of the season, around Halloween, fertilize the cedars one last time. Each spring feed your cedars with 20-20-20 water soluble fertilizer, when the frost is completely out of the ground.

PruningRight after you plant your new cedars trim them back 25 to 30 percent of their overall height. Trimming them at this stage does not stop them from growing in height, but it does encourages the cedars to fi ll in thicker sooner. After the initial year, trim the hedge lightly, once annually, until the desired height is reached and then trim to maintain their size. It is better to consistently trim your hedge once each year than wait several years and do a large trim.

ProtectionIf you are planting your cedars in a windy area, install T-bars every 10’ on the windy side of the hedge. Thread clothesline wire through the holes in each T-bar, pulling the line as tightly as possible. Finally using natural twine, tie the cedars to the wire for added stability.

In the winter in windy locations or salt exposed areas, drape your hedge with burlap around the time of the winter holidays to protect the hedge from burning.

What does he plant who plants a treeHe plants, in sap and leaf and wood,

In love of home and loyalty,And far-cast thought of civic goodHis blessing on the neighborhood.
