Tree Planting Area Size: Futuring Resource Availability and Constraints

The success of tree plantings in communities and yards is dependent upon many features of species, site, and planting procedure. One component of site which directly affects new tree success, continued low maintenance growth, and relatively long life span is the open soil surface area and volume of soil colonized by roots. Selecting new planting sites for the availability of adequate resources, now and into the future, as trees expand their resources will maximize the chances of producing a great, long-lived tree.
