Q:What is hardness zones? A: Hardiness zones are the suggested areas where plants can survive based on location.
Q: How do I know if the trees am I am buying are in the right hardiness zone? A: WE specifically choose trees that are grown to survive in our suggested hardiness zones.
Q: Can I plant Oak Trees even though there is oak wilt on my property? A: If your red oaks have oak wilt, plant white oaks. If you have eliminated oak wilt through management plant a combination of red and white oak.
Q: How do I prepare a site for planting? A: Kill Grass and other ground vegetation. To do so, spray ground with glyphosate based herbicide the fall before planting. If you spray the grass with glyphosate in the spring, read label to determine how long to wait before planting trees. Spraying a 3 foot wide circle will give the tree an advantage. Grass can also be scalped with a string trimmer or a hoe. Carefully read herbicide labels.
Q: What if I want to order larger quantities? A: Just call us and ask.
