Nuttall Oak Trees-4-6 ft
This red oak is a sure-fire winner for ducks, deer, and folks who don’t think they have a green thumb! Nuttall oaks are easy to establish, and grow like a weed as a young tree. Even better, Nuttalls can tolerate poorly drained sites more so than any other red oak. Wait there’s more! Many of our Nuttalls don’t even think about dropping until December, which means one of the highest carb acorns (about 45%) are on the ground when ducks and bucks need energy the most.
Deer people: Plant Nuttalls in the back corner of your favorite big late season food plot, or along their favorite trail leading to that plot.
Duckers: Establish Nuttalls in areas that can be flooded most every winter. Remember all duck holes need an occasional break from flooding. Call our MOLES staff for more help on establishing and managing oaks in your timber holes. Nuttall oak is definitely on our top five list of favorite oaks!

Methley Plum Tree
The Methley plum, one of few self-pollinating plum varieties, originated in China thousands of years ago. Plum trees, which are categorized by origin, fall into three main categories; European, Japanese and American. The Methley plum, like many other Japanese varieties, are a popular variety in the United States due to its ability to grow in a wider range of soils and climates in comparison to its European counterpart.
Its large, heart-shaped, clingstone fruit are a sweet treat to animals and people alike and typically begin to blossom in late May. In addition to animals, the Methley plum is a favorite among many varieties of butterflies and will provide any wildlife lover hours of entertainment.

Sawtooth Oak-4-6 ft
Type: Cerris Oak (not red or white)
Zone: 5 - 9
Soil pH: 4.4 - 7.1
Mature Height: 80'
Wildlife Value: Large early dropping, abundance of acorns favored by deer and most all other wildlife.
Site Preference: Must have plenty of sun and prefers fertile, well-drained soil to thrive and produce heavy mast crops.
Nut Maturity Date: September to October
Alias: Oriental Oak, Gobbler Oak
Sawtooth oak has been an American citizen for quite some time, and proves itself a winner in our book as the first to provide hard mast for all walks of wildlife. Acorns rain down annually, at a critical time when other oaks haven’t even thought of shedding. Sawtooths are so productive that we can fill the back of a pickup with acorns from three trees!
Trail camera folks and early season bow hunters should all agree that sawtooth oak is a winner. Plant a few groves near the cabin or close to your property’s perimeter for a low impact, easy access, and early season “sure thing” hunting spot.
Acorns drop from mid-September to mid-October and as early as year six from seed on better sites, but we’ve seen them produce younger than that. This particular seedling comes from a ‘gobbler’ selection which we believe produces a heavier crop than the larger seeded strains.
