Plant the right tree in the right place is a common mantra in the tree care industry.\u00a0 However, how does a homeowner actually go about tree selection and why is it important anyway? Giving thought to the type of tree you’re planting and where it will live will ultimately make life easier for you — and your tree!\u00a0 Selecting a tree that will thrive in the conditions where you are planting means that tree will be healthier and easier to maintain.<\/p>\n

The First Step in Tree Selection<\/h3>\n

Before even stepping foot in a nursey, first consider why you are planting a tree.\u00a0 Are you looking for shade?\u00a0 Need privacy or a border? Want to improve the property’s appearance?\u00a0 These types of questions will help guide your decision on what best suits your needs.\u00a0 For example, maybe you’re looking to add winter interest to your landscape.\u00a0 In this case, you’ll want to choose species that are evergreen or those that have unique bark or an interesting branching pattern.<\/p>\n

Important Tree Considerations<\/h3>\n

One of the primary considerations is making sure your tree will fit in the available growing space, now and at maturity.\u00a0 Inadequate space is a common issue for trees in landscapes.\u00a0 A tree that began small may grow to encroach on a home with branches overhanging the roof.\u00a0 Further, don’t forget about the space needed for root growth underground.\u00a0 Roots from trees growing too close to sidewalks, driveways or structures can damage a building foundation, block pipes or crack pavement.\u00a0 If there are power lines, large trees may pose a hazard or result in outages.\u00a0 With this in mind, be sure to know the shape, height and canopy spread at maturity of the species you want to plant.<\/p>\n

Beyond size, it’s important to understand the characteristics of the tree.\u00a0 Some property owners select fast-growing trees to establish shade quickly.\u00a0 Unfortunately, these trees often have weaker wood and shorter lifespans.\u00a0 One such tree is silver maple.\u00a0 Its known for having weak limbs that are prone to breakage in storms.\u00a0 Here, the tradeoff for quick growth may be a tree that requires more maintenance and pruning over its lifetime.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind as well that native trees are adapted to thrive in their home range.\u00a0 Generally, these species will be a better choice and require less maintenance.<\/p>\n

Important Site Considerations<\/h3>\n

Most people have heard of hardiness zones<\/a> and know they should select plants for their zone that are adaptable to their climate.\u00a0 However, there is way more to it!\u00a0 Every property has different growing conditions even within the same zone.\u00a0 For one thing, availability of sunlight plays a role.\u00a0 Most trees require full sun though some will tolerate other conditions.\u00a0 Therefore, if you’re planting in a shady spot, you’ll have limited options.\u00a0 Shade-tolerant choices include beech, hornbeam, hemlock and some maples.<\/p>\n

In addition, soil composition and conditions are critical.\u00a0 Nearly all trees grow well under optimal conditions with consistently moist, well-drained soil.\u00a0 Generally, though, these conditions are not found in urban and suburban planting spaces.\u00a0 The texture, drainage, pH level and availability of nutrients all play a major role in a plant’s ability to survive.\u00a0 Sometimes, when these issues are present, it may be relatively easy to address.\u00a0 At other times, there are species that will never thrive in certain soil conditions.\u00a0 Through soil analysis<\/a>, you can gain insight into the conditions of a specific planting site.\u00a0 Then, for example, you can know if you need to select trees that tolerate poorly drained sites<\/a> or that meet some other specifications.<\/p>\n

Finally, an understanding of local insects and diseases can help you make an informed decision in tree selection.\u00a0 Some species are more tolerant than others.\u00a0 Know that in geographies where emerald ash borer is present, planting ash trees will not be a good choice.\u00a0 If you’re looking to use trees as a privacy screen, but know hemlock woolly adelgid is a problem then consider an alternative like Eastern redcedar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
