Tree Planting Tips Some tips on how to carefully and strategically place new trees.

Tree Planting Tips: 

Tree Planting Tips Well placed trees can reduce home energy use by up to 30% (people planning to plant certain trees in energy saving locations receive a $5 discount on their order). Planting shade trees on the east, southeast, west or southwest sides of your home will help block out some of the hot summer sun. Planting evergreen trees on the north or northwest sides of your home will block cold winter winds.

Tree Planting Tips: 

Tree Planting Tips Carefully look over the planned planting area: LOOK UP before you plant! Consider the mature height of the tree when planting under power lines. Know what is underground! Call 1-800-292-8989 for a FREE service to locate underground utilities one week before planting. Plant at the distance of one half the size of the mature tree spread. Example: a tree with a 50’ spread should be planted 25’ away from the house so that it does not grow into nearby objects.
