Pat Dye, previous Auburn University Head Football Coach and owner of Crooked Oaks, had a special interest in Japanese Maples. Among the nursery and gardens on property you will find over 200 varieties in propagation. As the avid outdoorsman that he was, often times you could find him among his gardens and nursery.

With a gardens manager ready to ensure that your tree can live a happy, long life in your yard, we offer unique tours and helpful information on bringing home your own Japanese Maple. Selections with different light needs, growth habits, and an array of colors to paint your landscape is at your fingertips. There is also a wide assortment of sizes to choose from. They pride themselves with doing their best to ensure you get the exact Japanese Maple that you are searching for.

Crooked Oaks continues to be developed as a place where folks can come to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Their hunting operation includes professionally guided quail hunts, and our rustic hunting lodge is open and ready to accommodate everyone from hunters to brides on their special day, company parties, retreats, and any other special event out there.
