You ever check your extension office for giveaways? The Beaufort office gives out native trees in the beginning of December ever year I think, I don't know if they all do it but I assume so.

If you work in a nursery you need to be on a first name basis with the Newberry county horticultural agent, (although not all counties have hort agents.) The office does close on federal/state holidays but should be open all other times. If you ask to get on their mailing list you should hear when they have the tree give aways or sales. Here in Beaufort you can get the baby trees for free but you can also buy larger trees at a ridiculously low price. I think it was around $5 this year for flowering and fruit trees that were almost 6' tall.
