Tree suggestions/who stocks?

Hello all,

I am trying to find a nursery/greenhouse that stocks either
Amur Maple Acer ginnala (25')
or
Washington Hawthorn
Crataegus phaenopyrum (25')

So far checked Andrsons, Lowes, Black Diamond, and Home Depot
Willing to drive up to 20 miles to transport it back in my Ford Focus (so, it has to be small for the hatchback!)

Anything similar would be OK...if it is hardy, not susceptible to disease/fungi/insects, max height of 25 feet, has small fruit for birds,
has great fall foliage (red preferable)
Anyone have ideas and/or success stories??

Yes, a tall order, maybe I am dreaming at this point?

Got these ideas from the Ohio Extension site

Thanks in advance for any reply!

I'm pretty sure that North Branch Nursery in Pemberville has the Amur Maple Acer Ginnala... give them a call at 419-287-4679

You might call Stateline Nursery on Lewis or Woodville Road Nursery. I've found not-so-common trees at Stateline in years past.
