So far we do like
So far we do like this tree, this is our 2nd one since our first one died after the return date. The price was high for this replacement. Hopefully this one will make it.
Love them!
Ordered quite a few of these "Wildfire" Black Gum Trees from Fastgrowingtrees and they were delivered in about 3 days! All trees came healthy, green, and in good condition. We're lining our driveway with them, and can't wait to see how they mature over the years.
nice looking branches and not
nice looking branches and not damaged. great hopes for this tree.
Black gum tree with dead tap
The Black Gun tree I got last year, the top died so I had to cut it off about 8 inches , Is there anything I need to do to make it grow taller now?
A Good Start
I ordered 3 of the wildgum trees; the 6-7 ft tall variety. The ordered arrived quickly and was well packaged. One of the boxes had slight damage on the outside but the plant inside was fine. I unboxed them immediately and stood them up right to allow them to get fresh sun and air. The trees looks healthy and have good leaves. later that evening i planted them. I used Kellogs Tree and Shrub soil. That is what the fastgrowingtrees expert via phone suggested. I was told to expect little to no growth the first year as the trees look to develop root system in their new home. years 1-2 expect to see moderate growth and then eventually the 'fast growth'. For reference, Fast growth is up to 3 feet a year. Moderate is up to 2 feet per year. and slow growth is up to 1 feet per year
