## Description

Healthy Osage Orange tree (Maclura pomifera) starter plug - not bareroot. Maclura pomifera, commonly called Osage orange, hedge apple, horse apple, monkey ball, bois d'arc, bodark, or bodockis a small deciduous tree or large shrub, typically growing to 8-15 metres (26-49 ft) tall. It is a Carolinian species. It is dioecious, with male and female flowers on different plants. The fruit, from a multiple fruit family, is roughly spherical, but bumpy, and 7.6-15.2 centimetres (3-6 in) in diameter. It is filled with a sticky white latex. In fall, its color turns a bright yellow-green. Grows best in zones: 5-9 The heavy, close-grained yellow-orange wood is very dense and is prized for tool handles, treenails, fence posts, and other applications requiring a strong dimensionally stable wood that withstands rot. Straight-grained osage timber (most is knotty and twisted) makes very good bows. In Arkansas, in the early 19th century, a good Osage bow was worth a horse and a blanket. When dried, the wood has the highest BTU content of any commonly available North American wood, and burns long and hot. Commonly found to be used by florists for decorative purposes. The wood should not be used in open fireplaces without a spark screen because the wood is very prone to popping and may send sparks and small embers several feet. The wood is very durable in contact with the ground. Thanks for looking! Please share this page with your friends :) The plug is approximately 1 inch diameter by approximately 2.5 inches tall. No minimum plant size is guaranteed, but they are typically approximately 1 to 3 inches, sometimes a tad smaller. These are small, just-started, tree seedlings. So, please, no complaining that the trees are small. They are starter plugs. They're supposed to be small.

Review: Plant - Died with in about a month gave it plenty of water sun so not sure why
Review: Seem to be doing fine - It is a starter plant, so it is difficult to say yet, what it is and whether I will be happy with it in the future, but it seems to be doing fine so far. It arrived well packed, although the package could have a protective box of some sort, which did not, but it was secure enough. My plant was half smaller than what is on the picture, which was a bit disappointing, but it grew five times now and so far I did not have any problems. Make sure you have the right conditions to grow it. Needs a lot of warmth and light.
