What a wonderful list. I have planted at least 20 hawthorns over the last few years. The white pines we planted years ago survived the deer browsing and went from 5 ft to 25 feet in 'no time'!
Ok, I looked at my oak again and maybe it is 'only' 25 feet tall, but still...watching it grow over these past years has kept me in awe of the power of nature and 'growth'

Thanks, Tom! I love that you have basically planted a Hawthorn orchard. Isn't it so satisfying to see your plantings grow so much taller than you?
Yes! My fave is the oak that I started as an acorn...now 30 feet tall!
Whoa! That is impressive.

Hard to estimate the height of a tall tree but it won't be long before the Oak surpasses 25 and even 30 feet!
