Spring has Sprung!

There’s something truly magical about spring in Southern Ontario. After a long winter’s rest, our trees are finally waking up—buds are breaking open, tiny leaves are unfurling, and the whole nursery is bursting with new life. It’s a beautiful reminder of resilience, renewal, and growth.

Here at First Nature Nursery, we look forward to this moment every year. Watching the first signs of new growth on our trees never gets old. It’s a signal not just of changing seasons, but of potential—every bud holds the promise of shade, beauty, and a greener future.

Whether you’re a homeowner looking to add a splash of green to your yard, or a landscaper in need of hardy, locally grown trees, now is the perfect time to visit. Our nursery is full of healthy, vibrant young trees that are just beginning their growing season—and they’re ready to find their forever homes.

Why Spring Is the Best Time to Plant Trees

Spring planting gives young trees a full season to establish their roots before facing the stress of winter. In Southern Ontario, the soil is warming, the days are longer, and the chance of frost is fading. It’s ideal planting weather!

What’s Budding Right Now

Some of our early-season stars include:

🍁 Maples, with their iconic red tips

🌳 Oaks, slowly unfolding their rich green leaves

🌸 Flowering cherries and crabapples beginning their bloom show

Whether you’re looking for shade trees, ornamentals, or windbreaks, we’ve got a wide selection that thrives in our local climate.

Stop By and See the Growth for Yourself!

We invite you to take a stroll through the nursery and witness spring’s transformation firsthand. Bring your questions—we’re always happy to chat trees, planting tips, and landscape ideas.

From our growing family to yours, happy spring—and happy planting! 🌿
