I will have more oak acorns then what me or the squirrels will know what to do with this come this fall. I have been trying to figure out which oak it is, my husband says it is a white oak though he is not %100 sure. I know it is a beautiful oak tree whichever one it is. If you want me to take a picture I can do that also.

I've had it for 4 years now and every year it has more and more stalks. I only have the one plant although this winter I am planning to start more. It is up against the house on the north side, gets morning sun and late afternoon sun and was under about an inch of pea gravel. I just moved the gravel to make some paths and covered it instead with some mulch. The plants I'm going to start this winter I want to place in more full sunlight areas to see how they do. Even with harsh winters it has come up bigger and better each year. The first year each stalk had just a few flowers and this year each stalk had between 12 and 15 flowers each. I'll take a look at your list. Even if I don't see anything of interest I'd still be happy to send you some. right now I need to put my kids to bed so I will look at your list later tonight. Jim

Hi Squirrellypete, I would LOVE to have one of your 'Honeycomb' Butterfly Bush (rooted cuttings) 'Black Knight' Butterfly Bush (rooted cuttings) 'Corries Gold' Gaura (rooted cuttings) I have at least 2 of the hot pink azaleas (see pictures) potted up (others I will be getting this summer/fall from under the big ones) and several different colors of bearded iris. I KNOW I could easily pull up/divide the dark gold and the pink that are pictured in my plant galleries (link below) - The rest i will be dividing and moving this fall. Follow subgalleries by type of plant....now bear in mind, the azaleas ARE babies - but they have been potted up for over a year now and have good roots. Let me know please, b/c I won't pull the irises out except by request. Rosemary Here is a link that might be useful: My plants

Poaky - not entirely sure what your first post means. I think the soil and roots are doing just fine for this tree. I think we all agree to set the tree free and that's what I will do. Here's an example of one of the trees I planted this spring that has no support lines. This tree was labeled as a 'project' by the nursery because someone chopped the top off at some point. Because of the fantastic price, we added it last minute to a purchase of 2 other N Red Oaks. This one is called the orphan because of the 'project' label and how we added him on a whim to our purchase - we felt sorry for him. :) This tree may be doing the best of any of the three I bought that day this past spring. You can see the SWO that started this thread towards the left edge of this pic in the distance. This post was edited by JD_MN on Wed, Aug 28, 13 at 10:40
