Seedling trees
Osage orange has traditionally been used to create thorny hedges, which can act as living fences. The wood is incredibly durable, making a great candidate for fence posts, bows, and firewood.
The seedlings can also be used as root stock for grafting Maclura tricuspidata, the melon berry, or che berry.
