RE: Our Tree Farm - A Dream In The Making, Even If We' re Not Around When It's Time To Yell Timber.

in ecoTrain4 years ago

Before planting the poplars, I had no idea that they would reproduce in this fashion. All of the trees we plant are from a company called Advanced Tree Technology. They are superior grafted trees and they cost about $25.00, so everyone that shoots up from the roots of the ones we purchased is like free money.
When the sapplings started growing from the roots, I had no idea what they were and cut them down right along with the weeds. It wasn't until a few years ago that I realized the saplings had the same leaves like the ones I planted.
Weed wacker or weed trimmer are the only names I've ever heard them called, seems like the right name for what it does, wack the heck out of weeds.
