Successful tree planting involves more than digging a hole and placing a tree in the ground. Proper species selection, planting depth, root preparation, drainage assessment, and positioning all affect long-term survival.
Common planting mistakes include burying the root flare, leaving circling roots uncorrected, planting in poorly drained soil, and applying mulch directly against the trunk. These problems can contribute to decline years after installation.
Professional planting services help address these issues during site preparation and installation. An appropriate planting plan also considers the tree’s mature dimensions, surrounding structures, and ongoing maintenance requirements.
