A monoculture of over 400 swamp white oaks (Quercus bicolor) was planted at the 9/11 memorial in NYC. The trees receive extensive care by a team of arborists, and their presence helps enhance the memorial space. #trees #oaks #swampwhiteoak #nyc #newyork #911memorial #arborist #quercusbicolor #quercus | Andrew The Arborist

This was the first year I tried growing some oaks (Quercus) and hickories (Carya) in an air-pruned raised bed, originally inspired by friend Nick at Living Soil Tree Farm. This is a super efficient way to grow lots of saplings in a small amount of space. You just have to make sure to protect them adequately from squirrels, mice, and chipmunks. This year, I grew swamp white oak (Quercus bicolor), chestnut oak (Q. montana), southern red oak (Q. falcata), and mockernut hickory (Carya tomentosa). Ve
