Small Trees




The height of trees,which are to be collected and planted on a site, should be just a tiny bit taller than the mid-season height of the vegetation, in which they are to be put.


If too small, most will be smothered and the few that survive, might not appear for many years.


The other side of this is; the bigger they are, the fewer can be collected.


E.g. When planting trees in 6 foot high Rose Bay Willow Herb; I can collect about ten massive saplings, which I then have to spend quite allot of time trimming.


When Collecting small trees, for areas with very short grass, on the other hand; 400+ can be collected on a single mission.


Smaller trees have to be planted closer together, but they require much less digging and most notably; they cover more ground.


So trees need to be just a tiny bit higher than the height of the summer grass, nettles or what ever vegetation, they are to be planted amongst.
