Fall Planting

[H20fwler]

Who is fall planting this year and what?

I'm going heavy on pears for no particular reason this fall to finish the big orchard up.

Planted a couple more Keiffer and Bartlett along the drive a month ago from TSC.

From Stark first week of November pears I should be getting;

2- Sugar Sweet
2- Anjou
2- Honey Sweet
1-Beurre Bosc
1- Seckle
1- Starkling Delicious
1-Red Sensation
1-Sunrise

From Cummins end of November;

2-Korean Giant on OHxF 97 grade #1
2- Seckle on OHxF 97 grade #1

and one Black Gold cherry grade #2

I've got my cages pre-made and I'm ready!

I'm waiting for trees in my nursery to go dormant. Then I'll start transplanting. Need to clear out space for new grafts in the spring.

I planted bare root trees to pots this past April. Now, I am planting to their permanent location;
1 Florina
1 Winecrisp
1 Wickson crab
1 Franklin crab, all from Cummins.
1 Snapp Stayman, from local nursery on sale - I could not resist.

I planted three of my "homemade" trees last weekend, two Korean giants and an unknown pear from my Fathers yard in Iowa , All three are on seedlings that i started from the wild pears around my place. I have a bunch of Sawtooth oak and a bunch of some type of Red oak growing in raised beds that i will probably plant between bow and rifle season.

I have a few trees to plant this fall/winter. A few of the apple seedling that I started under lights last winter and grafted early this spring took. I'll plant them this fall. I bought 4 mulberry trees last winter and grew them in 3 gal RB2s on my deck this summer. I'll plant them this fall. I have a few Jujube that I started from sprouts that are large enough to plant this fall.

Thanks,

Jack

I finished planting in September, before bow season started. I needed to provide supplemental water twice, but now the fall rains have begun. This year's autumn planting consisted of ~20 late-drop Sawtooth, ~20 English-Bur hybrids, ~15 Crabapple (seed-propagated from a local tree with desirable characteristics), ~20 hybrid Chestnut that I've babied for two years, and ~30 Siberian Peashrub. I'm keeping the DCO to plant as two-year-olds next year and hoping that the Hazelnut will come back if I overwinter them in the garage (frost damage back in May knocked some beautiful seedlings on their butts). Next Spring I'm limiting myself to some fruit trees and a bunch of chainsaw work; this past April was insane with planting. Next fall will resume with some of the seedlings I start this winter. Hopefully including SWO, if I can find some nuts from a Northern source (hint, hint).
