Finally, ponderosa saplings tend to grow more quickly than Jeffrey saplings, but Jeffreys grow more quickly once they reach the pole stage. This isn\u2019t a reliable identifying feature, however, since you would have to observe two trees growing side by side over a period of time, and other factors can also impact the rate of growth.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
