Plant Propagation and
Distributions
Trees for Mt. Lemmon has several sources of plants for distribution to property owners. Because our goal is to revegetate the native species from the mountain, we collect seeds and plants from Summerhaven and environs to be grown until they are ready for planting. We usually distribute these plants during the monsoon in July.
Current information on plant distributions is (here)
Information on propagation at NAU.
Information on plants available will be distributed via the message board when we know what plants have been successfully propagated for the year.
The list of these plants and other sources for plants and seeds can be found here.
Aspen Transplanting:
In the late fall (usually November), when the Aspen trees are dormant, we work with the US Forest Service to allow Mt Lemmon residents to harvest small Aspen trees from public land and transplant them onto their property. Members of the message board will receive the announcement.
