Choosing a Suitable Tree for Your Yard

Prior to selecting a tree, you need to think about what purpose it will serve on your property. Do you want a tree for decorative purposes or are you seeking a tree that will offer shade? Perhaps you are looking for a wind-breaking tree to help shield your home or a fruit-bearing tree to feed your family. There is so much diversity and variety when it comes to trees that it can be hard to whittle down your options.

Maintenance

Every family is unique and so are their schedules. Some trees demand more attention than others which narrows your choices to an evergreen tree or a deciduous tree. Evergreen trees stay green most of the year and though they need scheduled maintenance, they won't need it as often. Deciduous trees are those that change colors with the season, as such, will need regular care to keep it healthy and your yard clean.

Tree Size

Size is a big factor when it comes to choosing the right tree for your home. You should have one of our skilled arborists come by to evaluate your property to ensure there are no conflicts with utility services or other trees in the area.
