11. Mature trees won't last anywhere near as long. And in our flooding and near-hurricane force winds

in winter, we need trees with really strong, deep roots. Also with the drought for months on end every year. You can never achieve that hardiness with mature trees being transplanted. Younger ones will always be hardier.

They aren't going for window dressing. They are going for LONG-TERM community improvements.

So, how else would you have them get the shuttle to the museum?? If you're such a genius??
