Trees from Seed to City
• Many stakeholders
• Many variables
• Complicated supply chain
• Environmental challenges
• Risky business
From glut to shortage
• Unusual species more rare
• Contractors will ask for subs
• Know your suppliers
• Visit nurseries
• Be creative!
Trees by the million

So where’s the diversity?
Getting what you want will require planning,
open communication and creative growing
agreements with trusted nursery partners.
Time, time, time – not on our side.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Trees for the 21st century -
  2. Typical delivery and safe handling of B&B trees. It’s not just important to see a nice tree in a nursery or in the ground. The stuff that happens in between can ultimately determine if we will sign off on it. Tree mishandling is very, very evident.
