White Oak
5 year old buck +
My Grandfather was born in 1910 on a 40 acre farm in Saddle Brook NJ. When he was a kid a large Oak tree stood on their land and they kept the mules near it. The land has long been sold off but the tree still stands to this day. A relative of mine owns maybe a half acre where the tree is, and I had him send me some acorns in the fall of 2018. I planted them in pots (after reading how on the internet) and was able to get 4 trees to grow. I planted one of the seedlings early this week. I have heard only to plants trees in months with the letter R in it, but I am not sure if that only applies to bare root trees . Should I plant the rest of the trees in May ? or change out the potting soil and wait for fall to plant ?. I am in zone 7 a warmer climate.
