DOMESTIC MATURE TREE PLANTING SERVICES

Yes, you can plant trees in your garden, and it can be a rewarding and environmentally beneficial activity. Here are some general guidelines to consider when looking to plant trees in your garden:

• Choose the Right Tree: Select trees that are well-suited to your climate, soil type, and available space. Consider the size of the mature tree and ensure it won’t outgrow your garden or interfere with structures, utilities, or other plants. Speak to our team of experts for guidance on choosing the right tree for your property.
• Sunlight Requirements: Understand the sunlight requirements of the tree species you choose. Some trees prefer full sun, while others thrive in partial or full shade. The Tree & Hedge Company will plant the tree in a location that provides the appropriate amount of sunlight.
• Soil Conditions: Different trees have different soil preferences. It’s important to make sure the soil in your garden is suitable for the chosen tree species. During the tree planting process, we amend the soil with compost or other organic matter to improve fertility and drainage.
• Watering Needs: Newly planted trees often need regular watering until they establish their root systems. After that, they may still require periodic watering, especially during dry spells. Our aftercare and maintenance plans will ensure your tree continues to flourish.
• Maintenance: As part of the maintenance process, we will carry out regular checks of the tree for signs of pests or diseases, prune as needed to shape the tree and remove dead or damaged branches and keep an eye on the overall health of the tree and address any issues promptly.

Before planting, it’s a good idea to research specific tree species that are well-suited for your region. Consider seeking advice from our qualified horticulturists who can provide you with valuable insights into the best choices for your garden based on local conditions.

Fully grown or mature trees can be planted at any time of the year. Planting mature trees requires careful planning, specialised equipment, and professional expertise. If you are considering transplanting mature trees, it’s crucial to consult with a horticulturist or tree care professional such as The Tree & Hedge Company. We will assess the specific tree species, size, and health, as well as provide guidance on the feasibility of the planting and the necessary steps for success.
