I live in saltville Va and I have a wild chestnut tree I was wondering how I could find out what gender it is so I can plant a couple more around it if as long as I just plant a couple around it that would work and it will change gender to what is needed I would love to plant all kids of trees here on the farm to help out. Could someone please help me by telling me what trees would best help the wild life and bees to prosper.
Happy New Year
From the team at Meadowview Research Farms, we wish you a happy holidays!
