Ep.210 How to choose good quality trees - Jason Summers (Remarkable Trees)

Plants Grow Here - Horticulture, Landscape Gardening & Ecology

Have you ever done everything right when planting a tree, only to have it struggle or fail in the end? It might not have been your fault! You could have been installing sub-standard trees that were never going to do well because of the way they were grown in the pot.

Jason Summers is an expert arboritst and horticulturist from Melbourne in Victoria. Formerly a city parks manager, he now runs Remarkable Trees, a nursery and arboriculture services business in Victoria, supplying trees to public, commercial and domestic projects alike.

He's one of the most passionate tree people that I know, and in this episode, we get very picky with what we will accept from a tree that we're looking to buy.

From ordering wholesale trees ahead of schedule to health signs above and below ground, this episode will give you the tools you need to choose good, sturdy trees that will stand the test of time.
