    200 pine
    100 spruce
    100 Chennault Oak
    200 American Hazelnut
    100 hardwood (I forget what kind)

    My place is along a State Highway and I want the evergreens to block the view in the wintertime.
    I got a Dibble bar so it shouldn’t take too long to plant them.

    Did you pay or get them through the Forest Service or Extension Office? I don’t need 700 — only 20 or 30 and I have heard sometimes an agency gives seedlings away.

    I got them through the Indiana DNR, they sell them in groups of 100, they were fairly cheap, between 25 to 38 dollars a hundred.

    Never thought of the DNR — got to check it out — wife might have a project she doesn’t know about. Thanks.

    Live where you have no neighbors... Then you can pee where you want... And no one complains when you bring the truck and trailer home.
     
    Dave_in_AZ, tramm01 and tucker Thank this.

    Check with the local office of the forest service.
    They have programs for native species plantings. Some times the will give or sell for a small cost, stock that they have.

    Hm

    I am not much for trees, but at those kinds of rates I can probably go through a bag or two to replace some of the previous and year prior's storm damage. Before we lose the land too much.
     
    Dave_in_AZ, tramm01 and tucker Thank this.

    My neighbors are far enough away, and totally blocked with the summer tree leaves.
    I just want some pine trees blocking the view in the winter.
    And I have room to park a lot of trucks,
    But then it is nice when the other drivers I know from the foundry drive by and blow their air horns at me. Or even yesterday the propane guy I know honked as he drove past.
    Back to the snow and flooding.
