Selecting & assessing your site

When choosing where to plant your new tree, consider the following:

  1. What kind of exposure does it get? (northern, southern, etc.)
  2. Is it sheltered from the wind?
  3. How many hours of sunlight does it receive each day?
  4. Is it well drained?
  5. Is there enough room for your chosen species and specimen to grow to its full size?
