<![CDATA[permies: Latest posts for the topic "Too many bare root trees, not enough time to plant them!"]]> http://www.permies.com/forums/t/70/plants/bare-root-trees-time-plant JForum - http://www.jforum.net Too many bare root trees, not enough time to plant them! trees mailed within a certain time frame, I am now sitting at the tail end of my week of vacation (which was supposed to be used in part to plant trees) with four big boxes of trees that just showed up in the mail and not nearly enough time left to plant them all.

I should be out planting them now, but it's thunderstorming (as in DIRECTLY overhead).

Some of the larger bare-root guys are getting temporarily potted up in big pots, the smaller bundles of bare root stuff is getting bundled up in moist paper shreds and wrapped tight, and I'm crossing my fingers.

I lie and tell people that the haphazard layout of my tree plantings is to mimic a more natural distribution, but in reality it's just because I have to plant them all SUPER FAST.

You really have to be licensed to sell bushes?

I seriously want to know why.

The same reason the state cares about all the other stuff it has no business caring about... because they figure they can charge you for it. ]]> http://www.permies.com/forums/posts/preList/14460/129163 http://www.permies.com/forums/posts/preList/14460/129163 Too many bare root trees, not enough time to plant them! trees in a day....but it really takes a good season of work to pick that skill up. And when they are your trees, you want to baby them a bit more. Anyway, good luck on it!

The presence of pests like Japanese Beetles, Emerald Ash Borer, and Asian Longhorn Beetle (as the names might suggest) has far more to do with international import restrictions than it does small-scale American nurserymen.]]> http://www.permies.com/forums/posts/preList/14460/129212 http://www.permies.com/forums/posts/preList/14460/129212 Too many bare root trees, not enough time to plant them! http://www.permies.com/forums/posts/preList/14460/129225 http://www.permies.com/forums/posts/preList/14460/129225
