I did not realize hala trees have separate sexes. Yesterday at a BISS potluck small halas were being given away but I took only one. If I'd realized the hala has separate sexes then I'd have taken at least three to up the odds of getting both a male and a female in the mix, to plant near one another for eventually producing fertile seed. In good growing conditions how many years will it be before one can discern whether a tree is male or female?
Regarding some native trees not liking much nitrogen, is it actually that the nitrogen in reasonable moderation has an ill effect on them or that weedy invasives are better able to take advantage of it and so overgrow the native species adapted to a low nitrogen soil regime? I am wondering because if it is that the nitrogen has a toxic effect then I should probably repot that hala (which I planted in fairly N-abundant soil mix), whereas if it is just that weeds grow faster in high-N then the little hala is OK as is, since I will keep it weeded.
Thanks in advance for any coaching on this.
