Hi
I'm wondering what to expect if I plant P. heterocycla
pubescens or
P. vivax just south of Nanaimo. It's probably Zone 7-ish. Will
I get useful timber, say 3 inch, in a reasonable time?
Brian, in Cedar


The climate is OK for those two. Fertilizer,mulch and water will have a
great effect on how fast they reach a mature size.
