The Global Tree Conservation Program @mortonarboretum advances tree conservation in the US and in biodiversity hotspots around the world, with a focus on oaks
Collecting #acorns is not an easy task! We had to stretch, climb, crawl and even fend off pigs who wanted to eat them! But we have more than 3000 acorns of the endangered #Quercus brandegeei to start a restoration trial experiment and a greenhouse germination trial! All worth it!
