Tree Care
When you walk through a mature wooded forest, it appears that trees can grow almost anywhere. That
may be somewhat true in a completely natural environment. However, when we take trees out of this "natural
environment," and try to grow them in our urban, "unnatural environment," our yards, they typically need a
little help. This help can be achieved in several ways.
Successfully planting trees in our urban landscape
requires us to consider many of the topics addressed below. Listed with each topic are several links that
will provide a pathway to a great deal of related information.
