We’ll show you the best type of tree for your yard and make sure it gets planted right.

There’s more to planting trees than digging a hole and dropping them in place.

INTRO TO TREE PLANTING

Tree planting done right.

The best trees and the best care.

There’s a reason that landscapers in Durham Region use Brooklin Tree Care — it means fewer warranty claims and healthier trees. We start by only selecting the best trees from the nursery.

 

We only plant for a few weeks in the spring and a few weeks in the fall. Planting costs always include tree selection, delivery, planting and mulch. Our team can work with you to pick an appropriate type of tree for your needs and teach you how to care for your new planting.

THE BEST PLACE TO PLANT YOUR TREES

Choosing the right spot for your tree is just as important as selecting the right type of tree.  

We’ll help you make sure your planting spot is at least:

  • 3 feet from pavement or fencing on all sides

  • 15 feet from buildings or other trees

  • Twenty-five feet from overhead electric wires, if your tree will grow taller than 30 feet.

TREE SELECTION

There are so many factors to consider when choosing the right tree for your property.    

Here are some tree features we’ll review with you to make an educated decision:

  • Sun Exposure (full sun, partial sun, mostly shade)

  • Soil PH and soil drainage

  • Spring or Summer flowers

  • Autumn leaf colour

  • Attract birds

  • No messy fruit

  • Provide shade

  • Tree maturity height and width (short, medium or tall)
