Any local places sell sawtooths or others that are bigger than a seedling? Would prefer something already a few feet tall.

I know a lot of people order them. We've gotten maples 4-5 feet tall delivered.

How many do you want? I assume since you want bigger ones, you don't need that many. Bigger trees=bigger holes to dig. Whereas the saplings can be stuck in the slit made by one of these, and you move on to the next one.



I planted 160 in one day last February, and it worked my soft arse over.

Yep, probably just a half dozen or so. Just looking to sweeten up a few food plots.

Call baton rouge green and ask them. They sent me an email a few months ago with a link to someone with large oaks. Can't find the email.

I have a few hundred that will be potted in the next few days. They are in the 8-10 foot range, along with smaller ones as well. Won't sell them for a couple months though to make sure they all take well.

I definitely will. I have a few hundred mature trees that I planted @15 years ago that I pick and sell the acorns. Just getting into the trees. Pretty good market there seems, especially for the 2-3 year olds. Seedlings are cheap and can be gotten anywhere.

Definitely. I've heard deer are bad about eating them down too so I want something that will have a fighting chance, and a two year old tree is two less years I hopefully have to wait for it to start producing.
