Because different trees have different mature heights, special attention must be paid to where you plant each tree. Good landscaping techniques help frame your home, not hide it, and also incorporates use of plant material compatible with existing facilities. Planting the right tree in the right place will enhance property value and prevent costly maintenance trimming and damage to your home. Good landscaping will also utilize shrubs and low-growing trees compatible with electric utility lines. Low-growing trees will not reach electric lines and, therefore, will not create power outages to you or your neighbors. Consult with your local nursery with questions about how tall trees will grow before planting.
