Thought I’d post here to help keep up with this thread. Thanks!

A google search talks about the ones found at a rest stop in Mo, and also says they were discovered in Belgium in 1843. Not sure of the difference

Wow

If Morse sells out on seedlings, I'll have to start growing some of those.

 

[Hardwood11]

I wonder how many the MDC sells? I ordered some last year, they were available for a few months if I remember correctly?

This is cool!!! Would love some but have never seen one in person that I know of. Do they hold their leaves into winter or are they more like a Burr?

They hold their leaves like a swamp white oak does.
