yamadori scouting and digging

[@dreamingofbonsai]

Great finds! You have some incredible incredible scenery near you!

[@classyadventures599]

Yes we do. I didn't collect any trees at the First location that was just eye candy. Thanks for watching

[@dreamingofbonsai]

@@classyadventures599 Sometimes its just fun going out and finding the trees and leaving them in the wild. I like to come back and see how they develop over time.

[@classyadventures599]

@dreamingofbonsai yeah I am interested to keep an eye on the large pine growing out of the rocks.

[@mmjnice97]

From my experience pines are hard to collect.. i wish you good luck.. your gonna need it..

[@binbin9]

Nice haul

[@bobhaze5324]

One request I would make, please mention that you are collecting on private property and that you have permission from the owner. It is better to be clear about all the factors that make your collecting legitimate so that people do not think they can just dig up trees wherever they find them. You took some beautiful specimens. I hope they all survive for you to enjoy!

[@wreagin1]

I love short leaf pines but I have a hard time getting them to survive collection. Probably because I usually collect them from clay soil where they don’t have much fine root. Love to see others working with them. They’re such great trees

[@classyadventures599]

I have the same problem. Last year, I collected 8, and only 4 survived. I'm hoping to have better odds this year. Some of these had fine roots, some did not. We will see. Thanks for watching

Just to let you know, if you are not taking the tree always recover the area around the trunk with the needles and debris that was there before or you could kill the tree.

Enjoyed the scouting and potting up. Wish we had some pines like that around here especially those growing out of rocks. 😆 The Timberline "pine bark mulch", is that the kind you use for your potting mix with perlite? If so where do you buy it? I had some a few years ago and can't seem to find it by me anymore.

[@classyadventures599]

Thanks for watching. The mulch bag is just a leftover bag I used for collection. That is the mulch I use for winter protection. I buy it at lowes

How long could you keep the tress in a the bag? I live in Texas and will be going to New Mexico and would love to bring something back.

[@classyadventures599]

@ElGancho08 i would say it depends on how much soil and roots you collect and what species. Also, the time of year is crucial. I only collect in late winter/early spring. They should be ok for a few days as long as you keep them moist.

[@ElGancho08]

@@classyadventures599 ahh okay few days would be plenty of time I will try to plan to collet them the day before I drive back. Thank you, hope to get some conifers

[@angry9901]

Did any of them survive? Perhaps a follow up vid?

[@classyadventures599]

It hasn't been that long since I collected them, but they are all alive and well so far. In the spring I will do a follow up.

Where do you collect trees? Are there types of public land where this is allowed? Id be very excited to collect trees this way

[@classyadventures599]

You have to check your local regulations. Check with the forestry service. Some places require a permit. This was private property. You would be surprised how many places you can do this.

[@enricoferloni5249]

Domanda ma da voi la raccolta in natura è libera? da noi ci vuole il permesso firmato .

[@classyadventures599]

It depends on where you are. This was private property and I had permission. On public lands in some places you need a permit. In my state you can collect 3 trees without a permit.
