Hi everyone,
2 years ago I planted 6 permissions and 6 chestnut from mossy oak nativ nursery. I also planted 4 chestnuts from whitetail hill. During the first growing season, the permissions were doing well and grew about a foot, but are struggling since. 3 have died and the other 3 leafed out the 2nd year but did not grow much, if any. All the chestnuts have leafed out the past 2 years but have grown maybe a couple of inches. I am in zone 5a and all these trees were planted on higher ground with tree tubes.
Does anyone have any thoughts on why these trees aren’t doing well? Any suggestions on other nurseries to purchase chestnuts or permissions from? Thank you for your time.
