Hi,

Im looking for seedlings (small baby trees) to grow in a pot in my backyard. I want to start a forrest in my backyard or elsewhere but dont want to pay the cost of expensive grown trees. Where can i find them in the GTA?

Small baby trees are called whips or saplings. In Toronto try calling LOMCO they are in Newmarket/ Aurora area. Also try local nurseries and see if they may sell you 2 or 3 flats. Sheraton nurseries may be willing to sell from their propagation stock. Also try the City of Toronto Forestry Dept and see if they or the Minisry of Natural Resources or your municpality to see if they have reforestation programs. ALso try Tree Canada or another advocacy group.
Good luck, happy planting!
