Our trees are locally grown in root bags.  Not having the roots cut with digging, means that they will grow faster once planted.  These are available in 5 gallon containers for $36.  Many tree species are available in larger sizes.  Let us know if you are interested in availability and pricing. 

We can't keep this variety of trees in stock, so please order in advance for delivery.  Contact us to check regarding availability of other native species or larger trees. Order larger trees especially early to make sure that we can have them dug and ready for you in May or in early September.
