I"m happy to tell you that 100% of the seedlings grew, better than I expected but very welcome.

Planted in a N-S configuration with the Dwarf Chinquapins to the West in one row & the Gambel oaks in a row parallel to them about 15' to the east.

It's my hope that closely planted like this that in another 6-7 years I'll be able to start looking for hybrid producing acorns.

Will give me another interesting thing to do/watch for in my little wildlife planting.

Edit:

It would appear that both of these oak types are of the kind to "sleep or creep" the first year. The most any of them grew was perhaps 4". However, several that got stuck in pots for a few weeks before I could plant them out show why I think. I removed that little netting wrap from all these when planting, even in the pots. When I went to plant out the ones in the pots, I was quite surprised to see a few roots that had reached the bottom or the sides near the bottom. While the pots were not large, about 2 qt. size, that still is fast root growth for the time they had. So I'd guess these little seedlings grew, but not where much of the growth can be seen.

So for anyone who intends to give these a trial, don't expect much or any above ground growth in the first year.

But I do think they'll do far better this coming summer with the roots established now.]]> Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,121,207#msg-207 Fri, 04 Mar 2011 13:09:54 -0500 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,50,171#msg-171 cmorse I am very happy your trees are doing well and thanks for the feedback. Many times newly planted oaks will not grow above ground the first year. It seems some choose to not send the hormonal message to the tree that's above ground to grow and instead spends it's time getting happy underground. Stress or genetics can cause this. Thanks Larry as this information’s is helpful to others I am sure.]]> Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,50,171#msg-171 Thu, 04 Nov 2010 09:15:54 -0400 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,50,147#msg-147 LarryM They are all still alive and I now have several growing out the top of their 5 foot tree tubes with the rest of varying heights. These are really great trees!

I planted those Dwarf Chinquapin & Gambel Oaks I ordered this spring in a 20' X 20' two row planting.

In a few years when both get to bearing well I'm hopeful we can get some acorns that will be a cross of the two shrub Oak types.

In order to try to improve the odds of getting such a hybrid would it help to try to pick all the pollen stems of of one of the two types? If yes would it be better to do this to one type over the other or won't it matter?]]> Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,121,121#msg-121 Thu, 27 May 2010 00:51:13 -0400 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,113#msg-113 cmorse Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,113#msg-113 Wed, 16 Dec 2009 08:12:01 -0500 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,111#msg-111 Craig
I'll be in contact regarding trees for spring. I've some pine, spruce & shrubs started, but am interested in something to go into moister soil areas.]]> Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,111#msg-111 Tue, 01 Dec 2009 00:06:03 -0500 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,110#msg-110 cmorse Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,110#msg-110 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 20:01:47 -0500 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,108#msg-108 Craig
Do you still do this?

Is a Swamp Chestnut X Swamp White oak possible, or have you done so already?

If you have tried this cross did they show hybrid vigor?

I've a area in which I'm planting that in some wet springs can hold surface sheet water for a couple weeks. I'd be very interested in buying some of these.]]> Hybrid Oaks http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,108,108#msg-108 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 15:18:05 -0500 http://www.morsenursery.com/phorum/read.php?5,105,106#msg-106 cmorse Could be several things all of which are harmless. No need to spray at this time. Thanks for the question.
