first stab at a tree list [View all]

with the help of the arbor day foundation

my available space is about 5000 sq ft minus about 500 for veggies, although we may be able to work out a deal with the guy in between us and the lot on the use of some of his land.
i picked the dwarves where i could, and presume i can find a suitable replacement for those standards that are on this list. followed their recommendations for pollinators.

3 Hazelnut, Arbor Day Standard

2 Plum, Damson Standard
2 Cherry, Bing Dwarf
1 Cherry, Black Tartarian Dwarf
2 Apricot, Early Golden Standard
1 Apple, Early Harvest Dwarf
1 Apple, Lodi Dwarf
2 Pear, Kieffer Dwarf

also plan to have berries.
prices are very reasonable, and a very helpful site. just starting here tho. so much to learn.

(also posted in farm/rural, cuz i am a wannabee)
