Even with the lack of rain fall this summer, we still managed a great assortment of 3” caliper oaks including Quercus alba, bicolor, falcata, macrocarpa, phellos, palustris, and rubra.  Our other native trees that are well-adapted to our climate and soils continue to caliper up as well with the aid of our drip irrigation system.  Part one of three; photos taken 27 August 2023.
