Wish I was close id be all over it Ill take some, will be in town next weekend Wish I was closer! very cool thing to do First class guy One of Art's Big Dog Crabs growing in zone 4a. Trees will be in stock on September 1st. bluehillwildlifenursery.com/product/big-dog-crabapple-zone-4/ Comment on Facebook One of Art's Big Dog... You have amazing trees How come everything always says out of stock, when is the best time to buy? How many years has that tree been planted? Will you have any chestnut trees on the 1st.. If you search and look hard enough there's exceptional trees out there growing wild that have been waiting to be discovered. Trees that from a wildlife point of view are something to behold. Once discovered, multiplied through grafting (genetic clone) and then planted, you’re creating a food source like no other. Who wouldn't want a couple of this tree on there property, I know i do. Comment on Facebook 1462112127235236_3096537610459338 I have one such pear tree in my yard. It produces prolifically every year and is always a deer favorite. Nice find Ryan. I’ll purchase some of these. Do you have some late season pears or apple trees? Will you gave them in the lineup for 2022 ? SHIPPING: THIS YEAR YOU WILL SEE THE RATES HAVE DROPPED DRAMATICALLY. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR PURCHASES LAST YEAR AND MAKING THIS POSSIBLE. Comment on Facebook 1462112127235236_3087259451387154 So I missed out on the Pears I wanted this year (sold out). So next year I want to make sure I get them. I’m in Northern Ohio, when is the best time to order? I don’t want to miss another year without them lol. I have bought both pear and dolgo crabapple from your nursery. I am more than happy by their growth and hardiness considering the biblical drought we're having in Michigan this year. I'll be ordering more for this springs planting. Is there a way to optimize orders for shipping cost? Is there a limit of trees per box/package? Do you have any dunston chestnut trees...if not when can you get some...I'm local so I can pick up..and want as big as possible Is that the same fertilizer recommendation for apple trees? Do you recommend fertilizer for persimmons? Do you have any of the cold weather persimmon available for pickup Is that 18” window screening material around the trunk you are using? Cool...shipping was the only hold up for me this year on an order..... Gabe Piselli better get those crabapples ordered This video is from a few weeks ago. It showcases the disease resistance that Grams Gift Crabapple has and shows you the difference between a tree brought to commercial market for wildlife compared to typical apple varieties that are generally planted around old farms, including this one. Comment on Facebook Grams Gift Crabapple... I bought a couple of Grams Gift last year and I’m going to have to add some more this fall. September 1st. AND THE RACE WILL BE ON!!!!!! When will I be able to purchase these? At one time crabapples were thought to be this small bitter apple that may only be suitable for wildlife if even suitable for that. Some people may have believed that deer would only eat a regular sized apple. As more varieties of good tasting and productive crabapples become available, one thing is for sure, and that is there is no apple tree that can compete with the right crabapples especially in a wildlife setting. Comment on Facebook 3028552023924564 What variety is that?
USDA zone range?
Drop time? Art, which one is that in your picture? This young tree is the Winter Crabarina. I planted this crabapple a few weeks ago well after all of my other trees had flowered. Not really being surprised, this very young tree had a lot of blooms. Being that I now have this tree on site at the nursery, I wanted to verify that this tree was at least partially or completely self fertile. Looks like my thoughts were correct. Petal fall has just recently occurred for this tree and it has set a decent amount of fruit with no other pollinators. The fruit is small at this time as it has just started developing but it will grow to about the size of a 50 cent piece by this fall and start dropping free from the tree in January and continue doing so well into March. Winter Crabarina has disease resistance and productivity that is at the top of the chart, exceeding that of the Liberty Apple which is an exceptional apple tree because of its great qualities. Comment on Facebook This young tree is ... Do you have any for sale? Can we pre order? Will you have several to sell? Deer Candy persimmon! This tree originated from the Late Jerry Lehman in central Indiana. Not to be confused with other persimmon trees with the name Deer Candy. As with Deer Luscious that was posted yesterday these two trees won’t leave you waiting for fruit very long. These Persimmon trees should easily make up 30% of any wildlife planting in zone 5a and above. Someone's going to ask me why? The answer is because with our grafted trees you’re going to say in year one through three "hey I got some fruit hanging" at year 5 you’re like "wow that’s quite a bit of fruit hanging"! Year 10 you will say "thanks for telling me to plant at least 30% persimmon trees in my plantings." bluehillwildlifenursery.com/product-category/persimmon-trees-for-sale/ Comment on Facebook Deer Candy ... Philip James Boyd Josh Webb and anyone else on here that has questions about his products. I live in the Tug Hill area of NY and I've purchased trees from him for awhile now and stand by his trees. I've planted over 20 persimmons from him and all are over 8" tall and I've had zero die. Each one of these have been planted in tubes are are doing great. I've also planted over 100 of his apple and pear trees each still alive and doing great and some trees in the ground after year two have fruit this year. With that being said I've planted over 1000 trees from another supplier that I'm sure we have all heard of and used in the past and in my area 80% have died. Just my honest two cents. I’ve never had a persimmon successfully last two winters in ohio I’ve got some
Persimmons that are doing good but there young Deer Luscious persimmon! Precocious? Most all of this variety that will go for sale September 1st has fruited in the nursery this summer. A 100 year old persimmion tree originating out of Pennsylvania dropping from September until December. bluehillwildlifenursery.com/product/deer-luscious-persimmons/ Comment on Facebook Deer Luscious ... If ordering what are the chances that it will be a fruit producing female tree? They hardy down to zone 8/9? That's amazing! How do you handle late frosts? This year in Michigan a late frost hit our recently planted grafter persimmons. Most of the graft is dead but the lower portion of the graft on all is coming back but it is close. What zone? Upstate NY? We are in 4b/5 border, looking for something like this or a good crab that will hold into November or later I’ll order on sept 1Load more
The pear tree below is just that, although not a named variety just yet, it’s simply an outstanding wild tree. You don't have to look very close at all to see that this pear tree is a heavy producer. No fireblight in this old tree as there is in some of the pear trees surrounding it. Many of the pear trees in this area are carrying some fruit or none at all in a year such as this with the heavy freezes we have all had.yet this tree is what I would call loaded. This pear tree readily receives -35 degree temperatures. Making it a huge plus for a zone 4 pear tree. Some how, I don't doubt this tree is on its way to becoming a named variety. This tree is not my find. Thanks to all you guys searching.

Pictures are some persimmon trees. One that was just planted this year and a bark graft on a male tree from last year from when I cut every male tree I had down.
There’s roughly 9,000 named varieties of apple and crabapples in the world today. The disease resistance of this tree places it in the top 10% of those varieties. With Its heavy annual production and pure sweet taste places this tree easily in the top 5% of those 9,000 trees. It's trees such as Grams Gift that are a huge advantages when trying to attract and feed deer.
I’m completely looking at this tree from a wildlife management stand point.
The name may fool you a bit, and the odds of a tree such as this getting its start in my grandmothers flower bed some years ago is 1 in 1,000s. This tree is named for what it is, a gift from my Gram. I know the name Grams Gift doesn't sound like one for the books when it comes to a wildlife tree name that may catch your eye, but this is the one variety that will go down in whitetail management history, given time.
Although I have already planted a fair number of this variety, this is the one crabapple that I will be planting the most of this season from here to NY. I live for bow season! This tree lives to drop me apples from late September well into November.
This tree was in full bloom this year when it was hit with 25 degree temperatures in mid May. I looked at it the next morning and the blossoms were burnt brown, I expected about complete loss because of that abnormally late freeze, yet Grams Gift still carried some fruit this year, typically it’s loaded. bluehillwildlifenursery.com/product/grams-gift-crabapple/

I have spent 3 years working with this Crabapple, which at one time was nothing more than just another crabapple growing in a fence row behind a gas station here in central pa that had happened to have caught my eye. This tree is a prolific bearer with weeping limbs, bearing heavily annually without fail every year for the last three years that I have watched it. Winter Crabarina has proven to me that is has resistance to Apple Scab, C.A.R, Fireblight, Powdery Mildew and even some lesser talked about apple tree diseases such as Frog Eye Leaf Spot or Marssonina Leaf Blotch. As I Initially searched the area around the original Winter Crabarina there was 1,000's of producing wild crabapples growing with in the near vicinity of this tree, yet I found nothing even close to what this tree has to offer from a wildlife management standpoint. More specifically noted was the way the fruit didn't just freeze and begin decomposing because it held its textural integrity extremely well and remained more palatable than any crabapple that I have ever seen during this time period of the year. There’s no apple out there that will feed more deer than Crabapples. bluehillwildlifenursery.com/product/winter-crabarina-late-dropping/
