Expert Tips

Help your new tree thrive from day one

The advice given most often at the garden center. Passed along to you.

Plant in Fall for Best Results

Fall planting gives roots months to establish before summer heat. Trees planted in October are stronger the following spring.

Water Deeply the First Year

New trees need deep soaking twice a week for the first growing season. A slow trickle from the hose for 20 minutes beats quick sprinkler cycles.

Prune at the Right Time

Most deciduous trees are best pruned in late winter while dormant. Spring-flowering shrubs should be pruned right after they bloom.

Professional Installation

Pick it. It gets planted right.

The guy at the nursery walked me through five different maples before we landed on the right one. It has been three years and that tree is the best thing in my yard.

Common questions

Trees & Shrubs questions answered

When is the best time to plant a tree?

Fall is ideal because cooler temperatures reduce transplant stress and give roots months to establish before summer. Spring works too, but you will need to water more frequently through the first hot season.

How big will my tree be when I take it home?

That depends on the variety and container size. Starter shrubs in 1-gallon pots are easy to carry. Larger shade trees in 15- to 25-gallon containers may be 8 to 12 feet tall and are best delivered.

Do you deliver large trees?

Yes. Trees that are too large to transport in a standard vehicle can be delivered to your property. The team can also plant them for you with a warranty included.

What if my tree does not survive?

Trees and shrubs installed by the Colonial Classics crew come with a planting warranty. If something does not make it, the team will work with you on a replacement.

How do I choose the right tree for my yard?

Start with the basics: how much sun the spot gets, how much space is available at maturity, and whether you want shade, privacy, or seasonal color. The nursery staff can narrow it down quickly based on your answers.
