Magnolia x loebneri
‘Merrill’
‘Merrill’ is a cross between two Japanese species: Magnolia stellata (star magnolia) and Magnolia kobus (Kobus Magnolia). It has fragrant white star-shaped flowers with yellow eyes, and the flowers are less susceptible than other magnolias to late frosts. The fruits are showy pink pods. Merrill Magnolia has a low wide canopy and can grow about 10 metres tall with a spread of 10 metres. This tree is located between Buildings 72 and 74, about 10 metres from the small walkway between the two buildings.
Celebrating Charlene Mary Gervais

Died: 2023-May-30 (age 65)
Charlene was a long-time friend of the farm and a devoted mother to Stephen and Anne, loving Grams to Jacob and Spencer, godmother to Michael and Daniel Lussier. Beloved wife of Lance Bennett. She is greatly missed by all her friends and family. When you walk by her tree remember to tread lightly. Life is a one-way trip so use it wisely. Cherish everyone and every moment. For the slow days, remember to bring a book.
