Mycorrhizae is a beneficial soil fungus that grows on the roots of your trees and helps them take up water and nutrients more effectively. Similar to inoculating plants like beans and peas prior to planting. If you select this option we will include a packet of mycorrhizae granules with your trees. Just sprinkle in the hole prior to planting and you're good to go. We don't plant anything here at the farm without using it ourselves!
When you buy from us you can rest assured that you're going to end up with a healthy growing tree come spring. We guarantee that all our trees will emerge from dormancy so you don't have to worry about spending your money on something that may or may not bud out come spring. Just follow the recommendations in our planting instructions and your tree is covered.
You must protect your trees with one of our tree tubes for this guarantee to apply.

Our Wild Crabapples are about as easy to grow as they come and are a great food source for deer, quail, turkeys, pheasants, and songbirds. The crabapples produce 1/2in diameter fruits that ripen in Sept and persist into Nov or early Dec. They’re highly attractive to wildlife but especially birds as the relatively small fruits are the perfect size for them. These trees load down with a tremendous amount of fruit every fall and start producing at just 3-6yrs old. They grow very fast and are very disease resistant. Wild Crabapples make a great food source for all the wildlife that call your land home.
You must protect your trees with one of our Tree Tubes to be covered under our Survival Guarantee. Please read the full details here
