10 to 15 ft, we can spend a about $100-200 per tree. I dont no how much trees go for but we need some for around our house.

Have you called around to tree farms? The caliper of the tree will determine the price, and not the height.

A brand new nursey, Tuscan Nursery, in Saginaw has some good size and good looking bur oaks. Those where the best and my favorite trees there. Probably 10- 30 gallons.

I went to a bunch of Nursery's lately. Looking for a good price on Native Trees. All were very competitve in price. I started to look at the contanier stickers and found a bunch that said Grown By Tree Town USA Ben Wheeler TX. I typed that in to my trusty computer. BAM. Tress. I just found this today. I am going to call them tomarrow and see if they sell to the public. It doesn't say if the do/don't on there website. So I went to my barn where I save my saved containers, and I bought one of there Red Oaks about 3 years ago from a local dist. and it is doing great. I hope this help you and me.
