Nice look with the mix of conifers with maples , is your Baton Rouge about
6' ? All mine are in the ground now and I built cages around to protect from the deer :lol: Back in the spring a deer nipped the top of my Hot Blonde, but it has recovered. I started putting deer guard cages on after that.

We live north of Alexandria - zone 8b - and planted a Sango Kaku back in late March. It held up really well in mostly sun . We have about 2 1/2 acres that I mow and has many tall hardwood trees , so some partial filtered sun / shade . Sango Kaku is one of our healthiest looking trees . I planted the Baton Rouge in the same area . The Baton Rouge originated just north of Houston and is said to be extremely heat tolerant and good for full sun. Check out Mr Maple on YouTube for info on Baton Rouge. They are my source for research and wonderful family to deal with.

Thanks, we were in the Smoky Mt.s before Halloween and went by their location . They were having an open house that weekend so we were able to check out the operation . Met the family and they are really nice folks. They did grab a Baton Rouge for us - and came home with 12 different trees :lol:

Well I will need to drop YouTube TV and find another provider before the Bama game - if they don't get it sorted out. Does anyone know if ESPN got their stand alone package started yet ? TIA

My wife had both of her's repaired . The rehab is painful , but a must.. After rehab hit the gym, watch YouTube to learn best exercises for flexibility and strengthening. You will get there , its just tough.
