Planting Trees -- Some Helpful Tips
Tree Planting in Michigan--this packet gives more in-depth tips
Tree Planting - Site Selection
Consider the plant's characteristics:
Do they need shade, full sun, dry or moist soil? How tall will it grow and how wide?
Consider what existing natural or man-made features are on your site which may
influence what trees and shrubs you plant and where.
Avoid the following:
Planting shade-intolerant trees under mature trees.
Planting on septic drain fields.
Planting trees within 10-12 feet of overhead wires.
Planting trees within 10-12 feet of a building.
Planting evergreens where they may obstruct vision near roads.
Planting salt-intolerant plants next to roadways.
Tree Planting - Plant Spacing
Reforestation: Pines - 7 ft. x 8 ft. with 700 trees per acre.
Spruces: 6 ft. x 8 ft. with 900 trees per acre.
Windbreaks: 8 ft. x 10 ft. between rows.
