I’ve never ordered trees online before and I have never heard of Food Forest Nursery, but they had hackberry trees and that’s what I thought would grow best on my remote Nevada ranch with ($)*$)%*# soil. Right now they are in buckets full of native soil as I didn’t have water ran to where they are going, but they are doing great. They are from two to almost five feet tall. I’m putting in an order for another ten right now.

Tree looked healthy with great roots. I’ve never seen a hackberry so looking forward to seeing it grow.
