Where to buy Chinese chestnut

[Rockhound]

I'm looking to buy around 10 chestnut trees, and would like to get some of decent size to get a head start. Any recommendations on where to buy?

If you can wait until the spring get Chestnut Hill tress from Walmart. A lot of times they mark them way down if they don't move them. I got several Chestnut, Pear, and Persimmon tress for $4.50 ea., marked down from near $36. Two of the Chestnut tress had burs which produced 11 viable nuts. Keep an eye on the Chestnut Hill web site. They list spring and fall shipping date.

Unfortunately there isn't a Walmart within 3 or 4 hours of me that sells chestnut hill trees

Order them from the Wildlife Group. You can get 36 inch bare roots for $3-4 each, year round. They will ship these in the fall, so planting them now is a good thing to do. They grow very fast, some of the ones I planted 4-5 years ago are 15+ feet tall and produced this year for the first time.
