White pine? I'm definately gonna get me some of those, I've been looking for them in seed form for awhile, All I have is doug fir, and jeffrey pine.

Great medicinal value.

Putting in my donation for the Autumn Classics
I think they send you 12" seedlings

Some state Forestry Depts. sell seedlings for a very reasonable price. I usually get 50-100 Virginia Pines each year and they sell Wild Plum, Oak, Persimmon , flowering trees, spruces, several different pines, wildlife packages, etc. The pines I buy are about a ft. above the roots, the oaks 5 ft. the Persimmons 4 ft. and the wild plum 2 ft.

Gimme a heads up if anyone wants some oregon oak (western red oak) seeds.

What do they cost you Knuckles?

Alabama doesn't sell them so I order from Georgia. They fill Ga. orders first, but they've always filled my order, so there must be plenty of extras each year. http://www.gfc.state.ga.us/reforestation/ordering-information/

I did the Arbor Day Foundation donation for 5 flowering trees and was very disappointed with the trees I got. They all died. Also they were extremely small.
