About tree planting
Tree planting is about choosing the right tree, placing it in the right spot, and giving it a strong start. A well-chosen and properly planted tree grows into an asset — shade, beauty, and value — while a poorly placed one can become a problem for decades.

Things to consider
The mature size of a tree matters as much as the sapling you see today. Planting too close to a structure, utility line, or another tree sets up problems later. Matching the species to the site — sun, soil, space — gives the tree its best chance.
Tree Planting FAQs
How do I choose the right tree for my yard?
Consider the mature size, sun and soil at the site, how much maintenance you want, and what you want the tree to do — shade, privacy, or appearance. The right species for the right spot grows well with less effort.
When is the best time to plant a tree?
In much of Southern California, the cooler months are a good window for planting because trees establish roots with less heat stress. Timing can vary by species, so it's worth confirming for the tree you have in mind.
