The District offers true American Chestnut trees in its seedling selection. These trees are susceptible to Chestnut Blight. The American Chestnut Foundation is working to develop a hybrid tree that is genetically 90% American Chestnut; the other 10% will contain the genetics for blight resistance. By planting and maintaining American Chestnut groves, landowners will have trees ready for pollination by blight resistant trees when they are available ..... the researchers are getting closer to a resistant tree. Please use the link to the American Chestnut Foundation for more information.

SEEDLING AND TRANSPLANT DEFINITION:
A seedling is a tree which has been grown in the planting bed in which it was sown for one (1-0), two (2-0) or three (3-0) years. A transplant is a seedling which has been moved to another bed and set out separately a few inches apart. A (3-1) transplant has been in the seedling bed for three years and a transplant bed for one year. A (2-2) transplant has been in the seedling bed for two years and a transplant bed for two years. The transplant is hardier than a seedling - it has a thicker stem, more branching and a more extensive root system; it is not necessarily taller.
