Chesterfield Tree Planting

Tree planting is a weekend warrior project that many people undertake in the United States, and the Chesterfield, MO area is no exception! With the right tools and know-how, you can plant a tree in your residential or business property and have it flourish. However, are you prepared for the manual labor and potential mishaps that can occur? Improperly planted trees can’t survive, meaning wasted time and resources for you and your family if the right techniques aren’t followed. Instead of undertaking this task yourself, give us a call and have us take the guesswork out of tree planting! Our services are fast, friendly, and affordable for any budget.

For trees, it’s all about location, location, location! Drought-resistant trees cannot survive if they are inundated with too much water, so they cannot be planted in areas that are prone to flooding or overwatering. The opposite holds true as well - if a plant is flood-hardy, it will thrive best when planted in an area with more rainfall. Some trees prefer a lot of water, but only if the water drains quickly. These are a lot of factors to take into consideration when planting a tree, so let Chesterfield Tree Service do the legwork for you!

Make sure you also take into consideration tree height and width when planting. Power lines and underground utility lines have to be carefully considered when planting trees or transplanting. How large will your tree be when it is mature? Will you need to cut it down in 10 years because it has gotten too close to the power lines? The root structure of a tree should also be carefully considered before planting.

Some trees have taproots (a large central root) and some trees spider out their root systems like branches. This should be carefully considered prior to planting, so as not to damage foundations, utility lines, or concrete in the long run. Trees can be very hardy if given the right circumstances for growing, and we’ve seen tree roots destroy sidewalks, pools, and houses when planted too close to these structures!

So if you plan on planting a tree by yourself this weekend, remember to consider: mature tree size; tree root size; power line and utility placement; tree location, sunlight, and rainwater exposure; and don’t forget that not all trees flourish in the Chesterfield area! Be sure not to accidentally plant invasive trees when trying to beautify your residence or business.
