I have 1 tree here in the yard.Dillers are digging and eating the crysallis or pupua inside the dripline since I have no dogs out at night.So no catalpas for my juglines.Oh well kool-aid and chicken chunks work fine.Attachment 427880Attachment 427881

I have 4 trees on the property. I need to plant some more. I will have to see if I can start some of the seeds this year
I have to say, for me, they are some of the toughest trees to try to grow. We will transplant really young natural grown saplings when we find them and they will do good for a few years, but then they start dying off. I don’t know if we have a disease specific to our area that knocks them out or what exactly is happening.
I am not sure. I know you can buy a few varieties. I have one in front of the house that must be 60 feet tall at least. Take 2 men to reach around it. The rest are a lot smaller. Every so often the big tree will be covered with worms
We have 2 huge trees like that where I grew up. That is where we get some of the saplings from. I know all I have ever seen at nurseries are different from what grows natural around here, the leaves are always a little different. I have thought about trying them in the past but have not yet.
I believe the ones called umbrella something another are supposed to be more of a dwarf tree
I planted the one in my pic 35 years back.Dug a fairly large shallow hole and stuck it in with a wheelbarrow of horse manure.Actually was 2 small wild 4 ft saplings.Middle of summer.They took right off.Go figure.Quote:

That manure is some good stuff. The trees at the house are flowering this week. Hopefully won't be long before they get worms. Most yeara it is the last part of June, first part of July when they are ready to pick here
Do you pick worms off leaves or the ground?Quote:
