While walking my friend's land earlier this year I saw a black Tupelo with trunk about 2.5" and really good movement down low. Hopefully this spring I can collect it. When would be the best time in Zone 9? I am thinking late January early February.

Got some trees flagged for future collection. Several Utahs and a couple of pinyon pines.

Anyone have experience with collecting jack pine? I've collected 3 now, 2 in standard spring time, and one in the first week of September. One of the spring collections survived, the other didn't make it. The one in September survived.
Wondering if anyone else has a preference on spring vs. late summer/early fall collection for these, I've got my eye on a couple more for this year.

Two years ago, I planted some Chinese elms on the land in my lake house. Now that I have plan to sell that land, I am planning to dig them up. Current plan is for February. I checked on them yesterday, they have trunks about 1.5" to 2". They are not as big as I like but time is running out for me so they will be collected.
I also have some on the land with trunks up to 3". I am pondering on their collection as well. However, they look good on the land and may make the land more attractive to buyers.

I love the eagerness of this thread already in 2023. Hoping to get some deciduous particularly winged elm.

I like where you’re going with those. Planning on 6 footers?
Those are both very nice... Happy New Year!

Coming to hang with us tri-state folks
We don’t have nice BC to collect, but we have wonderful native trees like Norway maples, ailanthus, and multi flora rose.
