How do I choose the most appropriate tree for my garden?

To begin, look around the area you live to establish what trees grow well there. Then think about how tall and wide you want the tree to be when its fully mature.

There are some contributing factors to choosing the right tree for your space.

Does it need to be a flowering tree, what is the soil type where the new tree will be planted? Do you need the tree for privacy or to screen an unsightly view? Or is it simply a tree to admire. Take a look at our tree filter feature to get an idea on the best tree for your situation.
