Matching Oaks, Redbuds and Pecans to the Site
Each species here fits a different slot in a planting plan. Swamp white oak and cherrybark oak handle the seasonally saturated soils of bottomland and stream corridors, while bur oak takes open, sunny uplands and wind. Sawtooth oak bears acorns young, which makes it a favorite of hunting-land managers. Redbuds bloom pink before leaf-out and suit part shade under taller trees or a sunny lawn. Reforestation crews commonly plant seedlings on 8 to 12 foot spacing. All of it goes in during the dormant season.

How These Trees Are Dug and Shipped
Redbuds and oak whips are lifted leafless after fall dormancy sets in, graded, and bundled with roots in a Terra-Sorb hydrogel slurry, then wrapped in plastic so they stay moist up to 12 days en route. Bundles of seedlings for a landowner typically go USPS Priority with tracking, and a reforestation order of several thousand stems is loaded on a semi for common-carrier freight. Handling tips are in our bare-root notes, and the wrap is pictured on how we pack.
Ordering While Supplies Last
