Dwarf Chinkapin v.s. Allegany Chinkapin
Are Dwarf chinkapins that much better? Im having a hard time finding dwarf chinkapin for a reasonable price. I am wondering what the real differences are between it and the Allegany chinkapin which seems to be more reasonable and available?
Thoughts?

I honestly couldn't tell you what the difference is,but I would assume you should buy the variety better suited for your area.Here are a couple links to places that sell them =

Dwarf chinkapin is an oak from the white oak group. It is a small tree or shrub-sized oak that produces acorns. Allegheny chinkapin is the shrub-sized cousin of the American chestnut tree. Allegheny chinkapin produces a small chestnut type nut. I would plant both - some years one might produce more than the other, but combined, some mast should be produced each year.

Hardwood trees grow kinda slow, so plan on a few years goin by before they become mature enough to bear mast. I planted a red oak in my yard 10yrs ago its about 15 tall now but has never produced a nut yet. 5 Yrs ago planted a pear tree and its also about 15 feet tall, it has produced fruit the last 2 years, deer like pears after a freeze has hit them.

Yes, chinkapins grow well in the northern KY area. They thrive in limestone soils, which generally make up northern KY.
