Native Tree Society BBS

Funny this came up. I was looking at two red spruce about 30 ft apart just outside my land. Gorgeous trees about 80 ft, I figure. Then I noticed a sugar maple between them. it was about 8 inches thick but the same height as the spruce. I was impressed.

Good to see info on the 'dacks again.

It is a great place. I would love to look around it. Like a 200 years ago.

Lucas: Thanks for getting the pictures to post. What did you do?

There is more than one way to describe it but the simplest is I saw the img code on the ends of the lines and just copy pasted to a new post.

I am not sure how it failed for you without seeing your post code.

Must be a great sense of accomplishment to turn a scrudgy weed-heap into a beautiful forest.

I admire the resolve, effort and dedication in the face of a Sisyphean task.

Blight is such a terrible curse.

I searched Dollarhide but didn't find much. It is a very exclusive club as Kelly describes it. They likely would be interested in their trees, though. Lidar may show some details, too. It seems like a good spot as Kelly says bottomland timber has been trashed all over. I couldn't find any references...
