Height and size vary, depending on the type of tree. Planting a seedling saves money because they are less expensive. Conifer seedlings are available by contacting the District office. What is a transplant? Older seedlings have a more developed root system. A tree listed as "2-2" in the age column of our order form means that it was in a seedling bed for 2 years, then moved to a transplant area for 2 more years. For example, Fraser Fir (2-2) = 4 years old. Scroll down to the bottom of this page for tree descriptions...just click to learn more!
