Perspectives and Outplanting Performance with Deciduous Forest Seedlings

In 1986 Weyerhaeuser initiated a series of research studies and pilot-scale plantations to provide information pertaining to the plantation establishment of red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.). The establishment of operational- scale plantations began in 1990. The current target is to regenerate approximately 3,000 acres per year in western Washington to red alder. Recently, we have begun small-scale plantings to investigate the nursery culture and field performance of bigleat maple (Acer macrophyllum Pursh) and Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia Benth.) seedlings.
