Bailey Nurseries offers an array of spring blooming trees and shrubs guaranteed to impress. Get ready to transform your landscape with fragrance, beauty, and the unmistakable charm of spring.

Lilacs: The Quintessential Spring Bloom

When we think of spring, we think of lilacs. Their fragrance and showy flowers range from deep purples to soft pinks and whites make them a seasonal favorite. Some will even rebloom later in the year! With a signature scent, you know that spring has sprung. Bailey Nurseries offers classic favorites and new introductions that will fit into any landscape.

Azaleas: A Burst of Color for Any Garden

Another showstopper is the azalea. This shrub bursts with blooms with an incredible variety of colors! This easy to care for shrub makes them a fantastic choice for beginner gardeners. Unlike many other spring bloomers that thrive in full sun, Azaleas prefer shaded areas, adding versatility to your garden design.

Serviceberry: A Spring Spectacle

Let’s not forget the serviceberry. This early bloomer is so densely covered in flowers that you can barely see its branches! Its delicate, drooping clusters appear even before the leaves emerge, creating a breathtaking display. Later in the season, it supplies berries, making it a favorite among both gardeners and wildlife. You can also pick your size with Standing Ovation™ being an upright shrub, Autumn Brilliance as the classic tree form, and Regent as the shrub form.

Spring isn’t just for shrubs, many trees put on a dazzling display this time of year.

Crabapples: Charming & Versatile

Crabapples come in a variety of colors and sizes, adding charm and whimsy to your landscape. Their versatility makes them ideal for filling different spaces, and as an early bloomer, they provide essential food and shelter for pollinators and local wildlife.

Magnolias: Bold & Beautiful

Now, if you’re looking to go bigger, Magnolias never disappoint by making an unforgettable statement. Their large, fragrant blooms cover the entire tree in spring, creating a breathtaking spectacle. If you love fresh floral arrangements, these blossoms can even be brought indoors to enjoy.
