Planting trees is an easy and effective way to beautify your property, provide
shade in summer and wind protection in winter and enhance privacy all while
increasing real estate values at the same time. Since a tree is such a visible part
of the landscape care must be taken to ensure proper growth conditions are
maintained. A tree is far more difficult - and expensive - to replace, once
mature in the landscape, than most shrubs. However, with some advance
planning, trees too can be easily maintained.

2. While planting each of these different types of trees differs in the details, all trees
eventually end up in a hole. But not any old hole will do.
The most common mistake when planting a tree is a digging hole, which is both
too deep and too narrow. Too deep and the roots don’t have access to sufficient
oxygen to ensure proper growth. Too narrow and the root structure can’t
expand sufficiently to nourish and properly anchor the tree.
