fastigiate seedlings

Dear all

does anybody have a source for cheap seedlings of some good deciduous trees (oaks would be best)?
I need to plant a screen on the south side of my property and can only fit a line of fastigiates but I need ~30 of them to make a proper screen....

Any pointer would be appreciated!

RE: fastigiate seedlings

i would start at musser forest for ideas on wind breaks.. which sight blocks are

once you get some ideas.. then you need to start searching under latin names ....

no matter what you decide.. i suggest some level of diversity ... instead of 30 of one particular plant ...

you might also want to talk to your COUNTY extension or soil conservation district office ... you have local sources of information.. may as well use them ....

JLPN Inc. Quercus robur 'Fastigiata'. Beautiful seedlings grown in tree pots. I bought 100+ from them last year and they are of superb quality + they are a wholesale nursery and the seedling cost is very inexpensive. Seedlings will be 3' tall at arrival. Their minimum is (25) of something, but tell them you'll need a few more. Price per seedling is $1.40 each with a 10 or 15 cent cost for the pot.
