Following. Nice response!

can you speak to when you collected (bud break?), what environment the tree was in etc? Cool piece!

Saw your other thread by chance - how many survived of those you collected? Getting some this spring.

All survived, these were all collected when buds began to swell and then kept in a enclosed area so they would not experience freezing temps. As far as area goes hornbeam tend to like wet feet. The specific area often floods when we get heavy rain.

Beautiful, well done. What was your soil choice when first collected?
