How can I plant small trees in the garden without harming other plants?
Planting Small Trees in the Garden
Small trees are still much larger than most other shrubs and plants, so it can be a challenge to plant them in the garden without careful planning. Before you plant small trees in the garden, you should:
1. Move any sun loving plants to another area of the garden.
2. Be sure you are not disturbing the roots of delicate plants that you cannot move to another location.
3. Make sure that a watering system is in place so that the tree does not take water from the soil that was meant for other plants.
