hhhmmmm i dont know the leaves look alike but the trunk of the tree and the color of the branches dont look like the ones around here.......but the littleones are doin very well i hope to go take them outthis spring and go plant them but a question for yall tree planters would you reccomend planting this tree in the middle of a soon to be food plot?and how would you plant it?dig a hole and leave it in the pot and put a fence around it to keep it from animals...
