Tree Selection tree planting

Before planting, carefully consider the space you have available, and what the tree will look like in that space when mature. Give special consideration to sites under power lines – only small trees should be planted in such spaces. Trees should also be planted 10 feet away from water and sewer lines. Below are lists of trees by size that are appropriate in Seattle .
