Where to Plant Medium Zone Trees
When you are planting new trees there are many things that
you need to keep in mind, but sadly a home owner sees the small tree they are
planting without looking into the future and that can result in trees having to
be removed when they are mature. Better planning when you first plant your
trees can ensure your trees have a long and healthy life where they are
initially planted.
There are three zones of trees – tall, medium, and low. Each
zone of tree has an ideal place where it should be planted. Let’s look at where
the best place is to plant medium zone trees.
Medium Zone Trees
Medium-sized trees will grow as tall as 40 feet and are used
to soften or frame the appearance of your home and other structures. They can
also be used to create a park like setting. Soil spaces that are appropriate
include wide planting areas or medians that are 4 to 8 feet wide, along with large
planting squares. Open areas of similar size or larger will work well. Medium
zone trees add beauty around your home and can protect your home from the
weather elements.
Taking the time to make sure you place the correct trees in
the right space will provide you with great beauty and it ensures your trees
longevity. Proper placement of trees in the medium zone will add value to your
home and it will reduce your tree care maintenance costs, reduce the risk of
damage to your home and property, and reduce the likelihood of any injuries. If
you are unsure about the best way to proceed with tree planting call your local
professional tree care company or arborist, who can help you make the right
choices now to ensure you get to enjoy the beauty of these large trees as they
grow.
