you mean i can use wood glue as a sealent

Would it be possible to use grafting methods to Dwarf-ify a full grown adult fruit bearing tree? Like, every place where there is a lot of length in-between important transitions or fruiting portions you cut out that length and graft it back together as to shorten the entire structure?

…fertilizers that release large amounts of Nitrogen quickly into the soil can encourage structurally weak growth that could cause problems and could potentially promote spread of oak wilt throughout a tree. Aside from the formulation, the method of fertilization differs from that of your grass. In order to give your trees the most benefit, the fertilizer must be placed below the grass roots.

Zones?

I planted about fifty this year. I will be potting some more next year. The red makes the best jam and yellow makes very good jelly.

When is the best time to plant these cuttings?

I have identified at least 3 of these trees that are super sweet in tontitown arkansas. Great for making jelly or jam or eating off the tree.

Very cool video, Love the idea of using your islands for something good. Great species highlight too. Thank you

I’ve been doing some digging on the nutrition for oak trees English oak in particular and I’ve seen it recommend values at either 10-10-10 or 10-6-4 has anyone got anything they can perhaps add to this?

So. I have about 10th acre of these in lake city fl. This is the third year they bloom but no fruit. They have been growing wild. Any suggestions on getting fruit

How is this possible? I planted red oaks last year and have maybe gotten a couple inches out of them they get watered 3 to 5 times a week and are surrounded by mulch.

How do the birds not eat them first?

Plantes mine yesterday and the top leaves have become yellowish. What does it mean?

I bet these trees are massive today!!!

Question: are these trees self-pollinating? Or do you need a pair in order to get the cherries?

In important use for wild-type chickasaw plums is pollination of plum cultivars, especially Chickasaw cultivars and hybrids, many of which are nearly pollen sterile and require chickasaw plum for pollination.

Love what you did here, utilizing a space that would normally be useless fescue for native perrenials that provide food for people and animals, cover for animals, and cools your microclimate like mowed grass wouldnt. Not to mention they are kinda nicer to look at! Recently ive become very interested with the idea of cultivating various native perrenials like Chickasaw Plum, Persimmons, Golden Currant and "donating" them to various similar spots around my city

Thank you for the great video! I’ve got three Volunteer per Simmons that are about five years old. No fruits or flowers. Thanks for giving me encouragement. Wasn’t sure if they would ever bloom.

Sorry mate but after more than a minute and a half your still only started to offer this skill...... quite frankly its BORING as you have lost my attention with completely unnecessary intro dialogue.

zone 3b all i have is red elderberry.. never seen the black yet

Thank you!! Plant native 🌳

What do you mean emer's wood glue isn't made anymore?

After four years of trying, I finally germinated these from seed. After collecting them for anyone reading this, they require a period of warm, stratification, first before cold stratification.

NativNurseries, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!

Try TiteBond wood glue. Great tutorial.

What does it taste like?

They no longer use Tubex Combi Tubes. Appear to use a house brand now.

Love them plum

Can you crossbreed them with normal apples to get them to grow in a warmer climate like in south texas?

kids can throw them at cars too , right ?

Although there some oaks that grow much faster than others and will produce acorns relatively early NONE will produce a HEAVY crop enough to make a difference until at least 25 years . Are you willing to wait that long ?There are much better ways to improve habitat in a shorter period of time .

I actually believe the answer to the question about why animals pick this tree over that tree has alot to do with how resiliant that tree is to acorn weevils!! And have noticed first hand that they are becoming more and more of a problem with each passing year. Several years ago you might have a handful of acorns that would have holes out of 100lbs. Not anymore! Now it is at least half if not more will have those buggers in them!! This year is the worst i have ever seen!! If it keeps on and is not addressed soon then oak trees will not have any productive acorns. And the animals won't have any acorns to eat.

Persimmons are delicious 😋

Y’all never answer the phone or return emails.

I have bought a few trees from you guys. They are healthy ,look good and arrive fast. I have noticed that the very small root system that is developed during the first year growth. Is the problem. If they are planted directly into the ground. , watering is the key. If you live Mike from hunting ground, pray for rain They won’t do well in hot dry weather the first year. I now plant them in containers for the first year. It has improved the survival rate a great amount

Why do you have to cut the tree off? You cant cut and graft to the side of the tree? What if its a mature tree you want to graft another variety to? Thanks for the vudeo!

I found these while in the forest at robbers cave! I only took 1 of the branches tho :D

I'm looking to buy a couple of these. I sent you a message on Instagram.

Cost? Benefit proved by experiments? Fifty years ago my good friend who owned a nursery sold out because he learned trees can be grown from seed with a mylar funnel shield. Germinate, water once at planting, all done! Old useless clear X-ray squares were shaped into funnels, broad side down, to hold in the moisture, protect from animals, filter out UV.

The ol’ carb apple?

Will it pollinate my other apple trees?

Give us more Dudley

Thanks for the identification friend! I've searched for these since I was introduced to them as a child, with my awesome/late and unconditional loving, 1/4 Cherokee Dad.. Standing near several of them now. If I'm alive and can walk in the spring/ I will be enjoying their taste and medicinal properties again... 🙏❤️✌️🇺🇲

Hi! I have a oak tree that is struggling, it’s right next to the driveway. We had an arborist come out and look at it and he suggested fertilizing to ensure it can get nutrients. A few questions: What fertilizer are you utilizing? My tree is a white oak tree, what fertilizer would you use?

Biologics....contain questionable things, now 2022 food has to be labeled biologics same thing here...gmo

How old does a tree need to be before I can graft a scion to it?

I didnt know red oaks beared mast every year i thought they were bi-annual mast producers

I wish more Americans would focus on native landscaping and quit buying the exotic mass-produced "green desert" plants from Lowes and Home Depot! Native plants support our wildlife and are adapted to our country. I love Nativ Nurseries as a source for trees I grow on a Florida not-for-profit campground.

These are great videos to help preserve the North American botanical heritage. I have a couple Chickasaw Plums in my Florida city lot (all native plants in my yard) and we make jelly out of them when they fruit.

Thanks Dudley! I've been buying your trees for a couple years to plant at a Florida not-for-profit campground near Dade City that provides free camping for youth groups. They have great music festivals, too!
