I told the master gardener about the Sassafras tree too. She was very happy that I had decided to plant her favorite tree in my yard. Even though it is native to this area, nurseries don't sell the trees here. I ordered a bare root tree from a guy on eBay who lives 300 miles away. He waits to dig up a twig (it would be an exaggeration to call it a stick) with roots until you order it. He dug it up and shipped it on the same day, and I received it three days later. He actually had included two twigs, and I planted both of them. Hopefully, at least one will grow.
