It seems like every spring and fall all of the big box stores have lots of ornamental and fruit trees for sale that they've marked way up. A lot of times if you buy these trees you will find that they are root bound when you get them home or that they have some sort of disease or they're just poor quality to start with. I've had all of the above happen to me. That's why I stopped getting trees from those places. It's better to order trees from a reputable nursery or go there yourself if it's close enough.
The trees from a nursery will usually be bare root trees. The price will be much cheaper and the quality will be much better. There will also be many more varieties.

Got some great information on the Ison site about how to prune my apple trees. Hopefully, it will help my apple production this year!
ReplyDeleteThey're a good nursery. I received an order from them last week and just finished planting. More trees will definitely help your production too! They have the right trees for your biome.
