There is such an amazing wealth of knowledge and great experience
here! I've thought of a question for you guys and I know it can help
save me a lot of time and aggravation. I've only been doing this for
about a year, and I love to go out and collect trees as well as work
with whatever nursery stock i can find cheaply. Right now my outdoor
nursery stock includes: Junipers, Boxwoods, Japanese Holly's, Yaupon
Holly, Yews, flowering Quince, Hinoki Cypress and Japanese Maple. My
collected outdoor stuff includes Honeysuckle, privet, elm, hackberry,
grapevines and Althea. Tropical stuff is lots of Ficuses, mostly
Bengiminas with some nerifolias too.
My question is: What should i avoid ? What's the best things and
worst for a relative novice like me. I live in Zone 7 middle
Tennessee.
PS If you're ever in Nashville, look me up !
