Hi All,
I have an uncle who collected, prepared and germinated a few Chestnuts from the trees in his back yard up in southern PA. He recently gave me five plants to bring back to Georgia, all about 12-18" tall and healthy.
I have read a few articles here and there around Chestnut tree's but know that there are quite a few tree experts on the forum here.
My question is, are there any things to look out for when planting here in the much warmer harder soiled (clay) south? He really took a lot of time with these and I want to ensure that I don't inadvertently do something stupid to kill them. I have never heard of keeping them in the refrigerator for moths and moths to prepare them for germination so I am quite fascinated by them.
Thanks for any help, advise and/or comments.
