A Practical Guide to Planting Tubestock Paddock Trees by John R. Baker is a hands-on, landholder-focused manual for successfully establishing paddock trees using tubestock (nursery-grown young trees). Drawing on many years of field trials and real planting experience in central NSW, it covers how to choose the right species, pick suitable planting sites, time your planting and select quality tubestock to maximise survival and growth. The guide emphasises practical techniques and lessons learned in the field so landholders can avoid common failures and improve the success of tree plantings that will become long-lived paddock trees supporting biodiversity and farm function.
