This Hackberry tree has sadly been forgotten over the years, not very many have even heard of this tree. Hackberry is a very quick, hard-to-kill tree that is easy for anyone to grow. The hackberry tree is a strong medium to large native shade tree that can grow in many areas and will do well. Over decades these can become very large shade trees. They can even stand up to strong winds and tolerate air pollution.
All of this hardiness adds up to a good landscape choice, particularly if you’re looking for an energy-conserving shade tree that doesn’t require watering. Our hackberry trees are grown from seed. These native trees are native to Our home state of Missouri as well as other states. The hackberry tree is a great shade tree that can get pretty large.
