Space Constraints

Think about the location of your new tree or shrub. Would you like to create a border or barrier with several shrubs planted close together? Do you have a small backyard or large front yard? Make sure to plan for enough room for your new plants as they grow over time. Remember that planting trees too close to your home can create issues as they grow and interfere with your foundation or wiring.

Once you know where you’ll plant your trees or shrubs, consider the quality of light in those areas. If there’s direct sunlight most of the day, you’ll want to choose trees or shrubs that thrive on lots of light. For low light areas, you’ll want to choose plants that do well in the shade. With Indiana’s weather extremes, it’s important to choose tolerant trees and shrubs that are best acclimated to the area you are planting in.  If you don’t, then expect your new tree or shrub to not perform as well as it could.
