Love Forest Farm. They're extremely reputable, and the trees they sent me in March of this year were beyond all my hopes and expectations.

I ordered a bunch of 1 gallon trees that were 2-3 ft tall, and they had the largest root systems ever, some roots were 3 feet long! We had to dig these enormously wide holes to accommodate them.

I'm sure you'll be very happy with your order. I look forward to ordering from them again in March.

I am really digging that hawthorn. Might have to snag one of those myself

Good luck. Some of us have a differing opinion of them.

The only way to go with with them is the (4) 1 gallon box (or combo of tubes).

The 5 gallon plants are much more expensive to ship than most others.

Hopefully you can post pictures for us?
