So wee

The chestnuts I got from a friend a little over 2 years ago have survived their second winter! (And I got a third from my friend late last year!) When do you think these babies would be ready to be planted in the ground safely?

These are from one of the remaining true American Chestnut trees that survived the blight. (My first post on these trees has a picture of the tree parent — it’s a historic registered tree in my city, on private property.)

Also, I’ve been working with my friend to get a bunch of the chestnut seeds to a local conservation group here in Oregon, and they’ve been planting them in areas they’re restoring! Super excited about that!

I was visiting Savannah and was exploring Forsyth Park when I noticed this line of trees. All the other trees were oaks, but there was this one sycamore tree (pictured above). There were other sycamore trees in the park, of course, but I was just curious if there was a reason there was one in this line of purposefully places oaks?

(Been loving my visit btw—lots of great food around!)

Taken at East Potomac Park, there were a few trees with branches like this, but this one was the entire trunk. How does this happen?? How is it still alive???

Two different varieties, the first photo is about 4’ tall and the second one long fella up to about 6’. Both have leaves and flowers I’m just curious do I let them go as is this year and prune later or do I do it now? Also hoping to get lots of fruit out of these in the coming years so the proper prune for shape I’m not sure what all to do. Sorry for rambling I’m just yapping now. Thanks in advance!

Hello, all! Months and months ago I collected a bunch of acorns, germinated them in the fridge, and eventually planted them. I believe they're swamp chestnut oaks. Once they finally sprouted, they grew super fast, a couple sprouts seeming to gain nearly an inch a day! However, despite my excitement, I am a little nervous.

When should I separate them, and put them each in their own pots? When should I put them in front of a fan to help build strength? Should I turn them every day so the saplings don't angle towards one direction too much? Am I over watering these guys, just off of visuals alone? Which looks the strongest, and the weakest?

I have so many questions, so I do apologize, lol. I'm wanting to turn two into bonsai (I have one other pot with three saplings, though they're currently tiny, only about a half-inch tall each), plant some in the wild, and maybe give a couple away, considering the place I live doesn't allow trees to be planted in the yard.

Thanks for y'all's help!

It's like the human centipede of trees.

Was doing yard work the other day when I realized our loblolly pine in the back is quite buried. Our yard is sloped towards this pine and I suspect that when that fence was built it started the gradual process of preventing all the leaf litter from moving further down hill. I would guess the fence is about a decade old, already in when we bought the house. As a result it looks like the years of “mulching” have gradually raised the soil level and now the pine is actually quite buried. I dug away what I could gently to get a good look and I can see the bark looks a little deteriorated but I don’t see rotting. Additionally the canopy looks full and healthy.

Is there any chance it will have acclimated to being slightly sunken since it would’ve been such a gradual process? Is there anything I can do to support it? It seems like an uphill battle to try to dig it out further since that would create sort of a bowl around the base and in this clay soil it’ll probably hold even more water. Unfortunately I have dogs and getting rid of the fence really isn’t an option

So i am a renter who was under the impression this tree was dead at the back fence of the property. Turns out i just moved in during its dormant season. Alot of the trees on the property were severely neglected prior to me moving in last september.

I am a lover of things that grow and want to help this tree thrive. My questions are as follows:

1. What type of tree is this?

2. Care recomendations?

3. Anything that should be down about the rotted topped section(pictured above)?

What ive done so far(started today):

-Mulched with a well rotted out yucca

-Began watering

-fed with a general purpose water soluble fertizer

My info is:

-Los Angeles California(inland) area(10a)

-Full sun

-Tree height 4ft stump, 10ft branches

I thank you all in advance. This is my first time posting for advice here so i tried to be as clear and concise as posisble. if you have advice on what info to provide id also appreciate that.

I picked up this mulberry tree two days ago in Gatlinburg and it has been my baby. I bought my first house with a long acre backyard. The field is completely empty and barren of any trees.

I planted it in the backyard yesterday, and then I learned there would be a freeze overnight. Total surprise to me. So I stacked tires around it and put a pot over top to keep it warm.

When I took the tires off today, I noticed the wind was beating it really hard, so I went to my garage and whipped up these stakes out of drilled PVC pipe and bread ties.

When I came back about 5 hours later, the leaves look droopy. I’m kind of worried here fellas. I heard you’re supposed to absolutely soak it as much as possible for 90 days after transplant.

Does anyone have advice for getting tall, dominating trees? I hear mulberry trees are the way to go for these things, but if anyone has any long-term ideas that would be great also. I’m 21 and I look forward to living in this house and watching my field turn into a beautiful forest. This is my FIRST tree I’ve planted, though I remember ever since I was 16 I was growing corn and cucumbers in my mother’s backyard, so if I’m being stupid you can give me a slap on the head.

Does my tree look healthy? Do you think it will make it?

So I live in Western North Carolina and recently bought my first house that has a few pecan trees and a magnolia tree in my front yard.

On one of the pecan trees, there are a lot of small holes that look like woodpecker holes, but are only in horizontal bands, and they start at the base and go all the way to the top. What do you think caused it and do you think the tree would be okay with that kind of damage?

On the last picture is the roots of my magnolia tree. There are a lot of small roots at the surface and I am wondering if this is okay, or if it should be covered with dirt or mulch?

Thanks in advance!

We are North Dakota and had to take down two huge elm trees last year because they were leaning over the house and dropping branches left and right. There are a few well established saplings we are hoping to transplant. Is that possible? If so, when should we try (4a, lastfrost end of May)? How deep should we dig? Are they just offshoots from the roots of the bigger tree? Any hope of surviving?

Seen planted in green scaping in West Virginia.

The tag just says “pine OMS”. How big will it get? Is it safe to plant next to my house? TIA!!

what could this be? any ideas? special queen #1 auto day 15 from sprout with spiderfarmer sf-1000d lights

I am looking at this hazelnut Bush bread in Michigan that looks like it would be perfect for me since I live in Wisconsin. If I get three of these same hazelnut bushes will they pollinate each other? Or do I need a specific variety like 'the beast' hazelnut to pollinate them? Thank you
