I want to think these 2-year-old Ed's crazy won the contest for the biggest trees grown this year, but everything is huge! The trees also have roots that go with the tree so that you see good growth this planting season. There is not much in my picture for comparison, but that drain is 6'', and the ceiling is 10' 6'' on the new building. I updated some numbers on the website at www.bluehillwildlifenursery.com Some trees that were previously sold out are back in stock! Please feel free to hit the share button and post this somewhere where others looking to feed some wildlife can see it.
Theres going to be a nice window for us to be able to ship to the south this coming Monday and Tuesday. If you have ordered and want your trees before spring write to at ryan@bluehillwildlifenursery.com

Always get great trees each spring from Blue Hill, here’s one I missed pinching the buds on after one year in the ground I thinks it’s roadkill crab holding fruit til December in Wisconsin . And they were very sweet. Have some wild crabs that should fruit next year excited to see if I win a gamble on them and get some nice fruit
I've got a good variety of pears and crab apples from Blue Hill Wildlife Nursery, LLC and every tree has been in excellent shape with fantastic root development! Such a superior product over potted trees from the big box stores. I won't buy from anyone else!
Ryan you and your staff do a great job. I"m going into the 3rd spring on the October crab apples and Turning Point apples. most are doing well, about 8 to 10 ft. tall so far. I only lost 1 of 20 trees. . Cattaraugus County New York .. Thanks. A job well done. Dale..
I have posted about this tree in the past. The crabapple makes more fruit than leaves. These pics are from October 28th, 2024. This past year, we grafted a small number of 200 of the tree, now named Happy Valley, to be two-year-old selects that will go for sale this coming summer. The name gives this tree's location away if you have ever been to Penn State.

How long do they hold fruit
What's the drop time range on that tree Ryan?? Looks amazing.....
What’s the taste of these like? Sweet/high sugar? Tart? Also any idea if zone 4 hardy?
Lots of roots on those persimmons!

Awesome need to get some more of these save some for me!
Any persimmons available?
Did you sell out of persimmon already?
I love to feed pears this time of year as they get that natural cold storage and become very sweet. This is why I offer pears such as Hunter's Deer, Sweet Advent, Kieffer, Korean Giant, and Harvest, as they have been dropping, and some will continue for a few more weeks.

do you have a favorite pear for both deer and humans? and same goes for apples. I am looking to plant 10 apple trees and maybe 5 to 8 pear trees. i want them for making apple sauce and ciders and canning but i want what is left for the deer.
Can’t go wrong with pear’s, easy and problem free to grow and the deer love them.
Blue Hill Wildlife Nursery, LLC one of my sweet advents is starting to produce! Myself and the rest of the fam could not believe how good these are to eat!! We'll have to fight the deer off for them 🤤
This next summer there will be some new grafted varieties of trees for sale for shipping the following spring. The crabapple tree below is one of them, but this tree needs a name! We only made 200 of this tree in 2-year old selects. We will send two trees for free if we choose your tree name. You can see the pics, but here are some facts about this tree. This chance seedling is prolific and doesn't fail to fruit year in and out. The tree is clean, with no sign of disease-debilitating fruit production in a no-spray situation here in Central Pennsylvania. This crab begins falling at the beginning of November and finishing by mid-December (they don't persist on the tree). The fruit is slightly smaller than a quarter but makes a million crabapples that feed many deer. The oringinal tree is around 20 years old. The tree needs a name! There are many unique crabs still available at www.bluehillwildlifenursery.com.

Wow! Lots of great names. If I use any of these on other trees the offer still stands.
Ludicrous Crab
All the quarter size fruit has me thinking some kind of casino/lottery vibe: - Jackpot Crab - Lucky Ticket Crab - Mega Million Crab - Full Stack Crab
While many trees are sold out or close to it for shipping next spring this is one that is still available at www.bluehillwildlifenursery.com
Winter Crabarina! Love this tree!

Hopefully I can get someone to come cut some large junk Paradise trees and dig the stumps out so I can add some Winter Crabarina's by 2026 lol. Nobody want's to do anything , I gave two different people the job and they just never show up.
Do I have to plant more than one of them to get it to produce? Curious if I planted it with other crab trees that dropped at different times. To have varieties
Now that’s an awesome tree!
We just sat in the wrong orchard tonight! (We only sat at the other one because there was two target bucks there last night). This buck showed up on the last shift that happened around the 18th. He is a buck we have the sheds from and one I was waiting on to return. He has consistently been here since the 18th, but normally just after legal hours and through the night. I had a gut feeling he would daylight soon. Sometimes you just make the wrong call on where to be.

Do you just basically use ground blinds for hunting your orchard’s?
Curious if you prefer tree tubes over fencing individually for new trees?
Every year it’s the same for us to.
You got to love those crabapples! Thousands of little deer candy's are starting to fall. The slightest movement brings some to the ground. Perfect timing as it's about time for me to be spending much more time in the woods. My central leader is getting pulled over a little bit, but with the fruit load leaving it will be ok. Good thing it's not grafted on a clonal stock it be on the ground. Www.bluehillwildlifenursery.com

What those above are asking! What tree / variety is this?
