4 Simple Steps To Plant A Tree the Right Way

Enjoy the following pic ideas. Don't forget to leave us a quick comment below.

And please share this post within your social networks.

  • Trees are remarkably hardy. They survive harsh winters, baking sunshine, waterlogged grounds, and even periods of drought.

    But, much of this is due to the fact that they have good roots, able to search out the nutrients and water the tree needs to survive for decades.

    Of course, this means the secret to ensuring a tree flourishes is in planting it the right way. Fortunately, this is an easier process than you may think.

Type of tree

Notes:

  • Your first step before planting is deciding what kind of tree to plant and for what reason. The tree type will help determine the tree’s location in the next step.
  • There are a number of purposes of trees that include shade, privacy, ornamental landscaping, and more. Some trees need a growing space for full shape; others can be used to decorate your front home area.
  • Other considerations include your garden zone location and amount of annual rainfall that you recieve. Some trees do best in cooler climates; others grow best in warm and humid climates. It’s best to visit your local garden center to view what type trees grow best in the local area.
  • There are two varieties of trees: deciduous and evergreens. Deciduous trees are generally hardwoods that drop their leaves prior to the winter season. Evergreen trees are green all year around.
  • The most familiar type of evergreens are conifers – the pines and spruces that grow needles and cones instead of a flat-layer leaf.
  • The type of trees to consider include:
    • Shade Trees:

      these include your large, hardwood trees such as maples, oaks, elms, etc., that provide shade to your home and garden. Use these type of trees for home energy efficiency use; shade trees provides shades the home during the summer months and then drop their leaves so that the sun can penetrate the house during the winter months. These type trees generally grow tall and take up a large space area.

    • Shade Tree Types
      ash
      aspen
      birch
      catalpa
      elm
      hackberry
      (view google images)
      maple
      oak
      sugar maple
      sweet gum
      willow
      zelkova
    • Screening/Privacy Trees:

      screening/privacy trees are used to screen something like property boundaries, housing sides, fences, etc. They can also be used as wind breakers in heavily windy areas. Some homeowners use these type trees as a privacy fence between properties.

    • Privacy and Screening Tree Types
      arborvitae
      blue spruce
      buckeye
      cypress
      fir

      hybrid poplar
      lombardy poplar
      magnolia
      tulip poplar
      scotch pine
      white pine
    • Ornamental Trees:

      ornamental trees are small to medium-sized that can take many years to grow to reach maximum height. Many ornamentals are flowering trees. They make great additions to front yards, garden beds, against the house, and in some cases, in container pots. Examples include the Japanese maple, red bud, crepe myrtle and others.

    • Ornamental Tree Types

      powder puff
      red bud
      serviceberry
      stewartia
      tree lilac
    • Fruit & Nut Trees:

      are you looking to harvest a tree to provide food for the family or commercially? Then you want to plant your favorite fruit and/or nut tree. To have a successful harvest, you want to plant multiple trees in an orchard where they can cross-pollinate. They can also be planted as an ornamental tree for flowering and limited harvest.

    • Fruit Trees
      apple
      apricot
      cherry
      crab apple

      pecans
      pine nuts

    • Evergreens:

Location

Notes:

  • Trees generally like direct sunshine. That is important to take into consideration when choosing a planting spot. More importantly, you need to think about the size the tree is likely to grow too. Remember, the roots of the tree are roughly the same size as the amount of foliage you can see.
  • With this in mind, you can ensure the location you pick is far enough away from other plants and sewer pipes to ensure no harm can be done to utilities, etc. You also want to be careful using large shade trees close to the house. The plant may start small, but it will grow.
  • The plant may start small, but it will grow. And large tree next to the home can impact the foundation and cause damage to the roof. View our article on how trees can ruin a roof.

Create the hole

Notes:

  • The next step is to dig your hole. You will need the tree in your yard at this stage as the home must be slightly deeper than the existing root structure and as much as three times the diameter of the current root ball. That may seem large but this ensures the tree has soft soil to extend its roots into and there is no danger of damaging them during planting.
  • When creating the hole you may simply be able to dig with a spade. However, most gardeners quickly discover a layer of rocks just below the surface soil. You will find rock augers are useful in eliminating the rocks and creating a high-quality hole for your tree.

Add the tree

Notes:

  • With the hole ready you can stand your tree in it and make sure that it is not too deep or too shallow. It is better to have a little of the current root ball exposed than it is to plant the tree too deep.
  • Once the tree is in the hole and sat straight you can start filling the hole with soil. The best approach at this stage is to gently tap the soil to ensure no pockets of air have been trapped. Once you are happy with the soil, you will want to add a layer of mulch to the top. This helps the soil retain moisture and provides nutrients for the young tree.
  • FINAL REMARKS

    You will need to water the tree regularly for the first few weeks or possibly longer until it is properly established. You can do this manually or through a sprinkler system to ensure the tree gets everything it needs to flourish.
