I planted white mulberry, hybrid poplar, and hybrid willow in the 7/8 zone border. I purchased from Nick Ferguson at rareplantstore.com. I have them in the ground and lost a couple due to the hot weather, drought, and relentless deer foraging. They wrecked some cages. I need to have a go at making bone sauce to curb that.
What hieght are you planning to cut them at? I have been wondering about what would be best. Ours are by my folks pasture, not in it. So mowing is a height considersation. Maybe i should let the deer browse line set it. I don't want to cut at the ground, but i dont want to be reaching too high either. I was thinking about waste high, but that seems low for mowing. Any thoughts?
