What to Know When Buying a Tree

In this episode, Jarratt Calvert, Operations Manager at Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape, discusses things you should know when buying a tree.
- Do you want deciduous or evergreen?
- Do you want a giant shade tree or a pretty ornamental?
- Where will the tree be planted?
- How much sun or shade will it receive?
- Will it be close to your home's foundation or a swimming pool?
- What does your HOA require? (Most will have a list of approved trees and minimum sizes!)

Just got back from Ind. Where I found a burcup oak with huge acorns. I picked up a handful and was wondering if they would grow. Any suggestions. Need a shade tree to replace cedar which my bride is allergic to. Thanks

If you mean Bur Oak (Quercus macrocarpa), then yes, the will.
