Oklahoma Forestry Services is now taking orders for seedlings. Specifically selected to thrive in Oklahoma's climate, the seedlings are grown at the Oklahoma Forestry Services' nursery located in Goldsby and available to purchase from October through March each year.
"We are pleased to offer more than 30 varieties of trees and shrubs, all carefully chosen for their ability to thrive in Oklahoma's tough climate," said George Geissler, director, Oklahoma Forestry Services. "At our Tree Improvement Center and the nursery we work to cultivate the best seed sources and growing practices available to ensure the healthiest trees for Oklahoma."
The seedlings are distributed as bare-root and containerized and can be planted for a number of different purposes including timber production, wildlife habitat improvement, erosion control and windbreaks.
The nursery encourages the public to place orders in October or November, while supplies are most abundant, and to plant them in January through early April to increase their survivability in the summer. For more information or to place an order visit the online store at www.forestry.ok.gov or call the nursey at (405) 288-2385 or (800) 517-3673.
