Ryan posted on FB that select trees are now on sale for $20. The prices still reflect the original pricing until you add them to cart then they update to $20. It does look like there is a 4 tree minimum. Unfortunately, $56 in shipping for me will keep me from ordering any more.

It's definitely tempting to put another order in... But man I have already had my trees in the ground for almost 6 weeks now. It's a bit late for me to plant trees not unless I baby them. Great deal though!

You guys are all a bad influence..but I’m not buying 4 more trees this year..I would probably find myself single if I did so…

I ran over to his place this weekend and grabbed 5 sweet advent pear trees. I got one in the ground and the rest are in pots. I'll get spots ready for them this summer and get them in the ground in the fall.

I ordered 12 yesterday. Half I hope will be in the ground. The other half I will pot and water this summer for fall planting. Ryan told me that you can get about 15 trees to a box. Reduce shipping per tree.

I also felt compelled to add some more trees to Orchard. Trailman, Turning Point, Callaway, Sweet November, Advent and a Winter Pear. Any advice/tips for planting this "late"?

I have two tips:

1. Give attention to watering sufficiently as summer goes on, but not overwatering.

2. I have sometimes put a shading device on top of the cage to limit the amount of direct midday sun until the tree has time to establish its root system. This would only be for the first year and probably not needed except during extreme summer heat. Something as simple as a garbage bag duct taped to the top of the cage will work. Punch a few small holes in the plastic to let the water go through.
