Seedling information
Black Elderberry: Matures up to 12'. A "super fruit" providing many benefits to wildlife and humans alike.
American Hazelnut: Can grow to 15'. The small nuts feed wildlife and humans. Great for thickets.
Pin Cherry: A small tree that may reach 35'. Another wild edible that also serves as protection for soil and slower growing seedlings.
Red Osier Dogwood: Matures at 9'. Excellent for erosion control. Its thick, red branches shelter many bird species.
Winterberry: May reach 12'. A low maintenance shrub that is deer resistant. While berries feed many wildlife, they are toxic to people and pets.
