Tree Planting - Right Tree, Right Place

There are many things to consider when planting a tree: height, canopy spread, deciduous vs. evergreen, shape, growth rate, sun, soil, moisture, fruit, hardiness zone, etc.  A healthy urban forest starts with a little bit of planning.  With a little research and a simple layout, you can produce a landscape that will cool your home in summer and reduce harsh winter winds. A well-planned yard will contain trees that grow well in the soil and moisture of your neighborhood and continue to add value to your home over many years to come. Although we no longer plant trees we highly recommend Heidrich’s Colorado Tree Farm and Nursery to assist with all planting needs.
