Give Your Trees the best Start to Their Life in Your Yard
Planting a tree seems simple enough: dig a hole, drop the tree in there, give it some water, and voilà! Fruit and leaves and shade and beauty for years to come.
It's not quite that simple. As hardy as trees are, there's also a fragility to them, especially when it comes to planting them in their forever space. You have to be careful to choose a space where the roots will have room to grow without disrupting the foundation of your house or underground pipes and wires. Take care not to damage the roots or plant the tree too deeply; after it's in, you have to decide whether to stake it.
At Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape, we offer tree planting services to ensure your trees get a great start to their new life in your yard. While you always have the option of Cash & Carry, where you buy your tree and plant it yourself, we highly recommend Planted & Guaranteed—where we plant the tree for you and guarantee it for a year—especially when it comes to large trees. We know how to transport your tree safely, we have all the necessary tools to do the job, and our crew is highly experienced.
Contact us to learn more about our tree planting services, then visit the nursery and choose a beautiful Frisco, Texas native tree for your outdoor space.
