WANTED - Seedlings
Well, I waited too long to order my seedlings, and just found out that the DEC nursery is out of all of the varieties that I wanted to order. Does anyone know ehre I can order apple, oan and cherry trees relatively inexpensively? Will the supplier ship to NY? Thanks.

What is an "oan"? For other trees do a google search with the tree type, state and the word nursery. You should come up with something. You could also contact the local turkey groups and the DNR.

Hi Dan -
This is the source I use
St. Lawrence Nurseries
http://www.sln.potsdam.ny.us/
They specialize in Cold Hardy trees and plants.
The NY State Nursery in Saratoga is really good for conifers - and some other trees - but their hardwood seedlings are very small and young. Many of my oaks from there just didn't make it.
The St Lawrence Nursery in Potsdam is really good for fruit & nut trees. I get grapes, rasberry and a few other plants there too. Its a little more pricey than the State Nursery - but the variety and quality is really good.
Good luck
FH

FH, Thanks for the heads up. I am going to end up spending quite a bit more than planned, and planting far fewer apple and cherry, but more evergreens. Next year I will get my Saratoga order in earlier. I will try to post pictures as my endeavor develops.

You could try here also to see if they have something you like, and they will ship out of state.

RE: WANTED - Seedlings
What county do you live in?? Most Soil & Water Conservation Districts have seedling sales. I can give you phone numbers of the counties around you and you can see what they have to offer. At Broome Co. we have over 60 species. Generally our trees/shrubs are a bit better quality than the DECs and are generally ~$1-1.50/seedling. If you are looking for big bulk order, you could go directly through or supplier - Meadowview Nursery.
