Caliper (mm) 35MM WB
- Very beneficial to small animals, birds and insects - Produces a bitter, round nut that is inedible - Soil needs to stay moist in summer months - Wood is very hard and can be used to make handles for tools, and sports equipment (for example, Lacrosse sticks)

Most trees are sold by caliper size (mm), which measures the external diameter of the trunk, 6” up from the bottom of each tree in Aug-Sept.

Multi-stemmed shrubs and conifers that branch near the base are sold by height (cm) measured around the same time.

Plants are lifted out of the field and put into wirebaskets once weather permits and temperatures cool (in spring and fall) so trees are dormant for best results with transportation and planting.
