September 15, 2006, Newsletter Issue #258: Planting Maple Trees

Tip of the Week

Maple trees come in a wide range of sizes, from tiny Japanese maples to massive Norway maples. However, they all have the same basic planting requirements. To plant maple trees, you should:



1. Always place the tree in a spot that is far from house foundations, septic systems and wells. Maple trees have invasive root systems.



2. Choose a location that has partial to full sun.



3. Be sure soil will remain moist in dryer months, but don't choose locations with waterlogged soil.
