Lot of 3 Osage Orange Tree - Maclura pomifera - Starter Plugs (See State Restrictions)

Got these a year ago. Slow growing at first but seller gave good instruction on wintering over and now they are about10 inches, healthy and ready to plant.

The 3 plants in the forefront are the 3 osage orange spouts I ordered from this vendor. I wasn't entirely sure how to grow them so I put one in full sun, one in partial sun, and one outside (in full sun and mississippi heat) and the outside one grew the least, so I've moved it inside. As you can tell- the 2 inside one's have really grown significantly. I believe I ordered them about 2 or so months ago. They came packaged wonderfully. I'm no plant expert, just have a green thumb I guess, because I didnt do anything special with these and look at them! I just put them in some small pots I had with some regular miracle grow and voila. I think they are probably getting a bit close to needing bigger pots. I really hope they're female, fruit bearing trees but we will see. I've really enjoyed growing them and it's all been pretty simple and intuitive so far. I was gone on vacation for 3 days, watered them well and they were still doing great when I came back. Thanks so much to this seller for proving me with these interesting future trees.

these were very well packed and arrived in perfect condition . i would give ten stars if possible .

The 3 Osage Orange trees have more than doubled in size in about 3 weeks. They arrived in a very small cardboard box and all 3 were wrapped together at the root ball with plastic wrap. Each root ball was in a fabric wrap. Left the 3 wrapped in plastic overnight and watered as instructed. Next day, cut the plastic and the fabric off carefully and planted in "young plant" planting soil in individual planters. Set the 3 planters on a brick ledge on the Southern end of my house that has dappled sun light. Have been keeping them well watered and despite a caterpillar eating 3 of the 4 leaves off of one, they have all more than doubled in size. The 1 that was partially eaten, now has 4 full leaves and 2 developing.

These trees came healthy. Planted them an the took off. Great find

Dead on arrival.. TWICE!!

I got these in the mail and they seemed to look pretty good, each having 3-4 leaves. I followed the directions, making sure they had moderate sun and water for a few days and slowly moved them into full sun. Then they started withering, So I pulled them out of the material root packaging and planted them in some potting soil. That didn't help, So I moved them outside (mid-May/ moderate weather) where they continued their slow demise. They all but died, when towards the end of June they put out new leaves and perked up. They seem to be doing well, I hope to transplant them to their permanent home in the yard in the next couple of weeks.

Plants arrived well packaged and in good shape. They did well in pots last year and I look forward to planting them in the ground this year. I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because I bought 100 seeds at the same time I ordered these. I got about 20 viable sprouts out of those seeds and those seedlings far out stripped the 3 live seedlings for growth (at least 4x taller by the end of the growing season).
