Culling the herd: who wants some?

Looks like we're getting serious about putting the house on the market and moving. Wife says my part of the yard is tooooo cluttered with (what else) trees and pots. As many of you know, I've been mailing donations of trees to folks for a while, but I've got to get serious about ridding myself of the remainder more quickly now.

Normally one would donate this kind of stuff to a club, but this site has been my club for the most part. So, for any member here who's willing to drive here (Novato, CA) and pick up stuff, I'm giving away the following:

Acer palmatum (Kamagata) recent airlayer, .75 inch dia
Quercus dumosa
Chinese elms (10, suitable for forest)
Portucularia's (several, up to 1 inch dia)
Prunus mume (graft)
Western redbud (small but nice)
Dwarf peach (graft)
Trident maple (1.5 inch dia)
Nandina clump
Bristlecone pine (small)
Citrus trunk chop
Prunus sp? double trunk
Acer monplessum
corokia
Bald cypress (1 inch dia)
Escallonia (1 inch dia)
Camellia (4, up to 2.5 inch dia)
Mesquite (2)
about 30 misc pots, mostly relatively small

These are trees and pots that didn't make the cut for a move. Most of these are small. I've tried to indicate which have some significant size.

Anyone interested?

Cheers
Brian

Ha, moving from paradise to paradise. I'll be there next month (SD) - for the Plant Genome meetings (we all sit around and snicker about about DNA). Well, very best of luck to you and your family. Even moving to paradise can be stressful. John

Brian:

I am in southern California and may be up to San Jose early next year. I would love to try and "Rid" you of these trees! I am a beginer and looking for stock to learn with!

Thanks for the very kind and generous offer. Feel free to PM me with more details.

All the best,

Matt
