## About Our Tree Planting & Transplanting Service in Westchester

Westchester Tree Pros helps you choose and plant trees suited to Westchester's soil and climate, and relocates established trees when landscaping or construction requires it. From coastal-tolerant species near the Sound to hardy inland selections, we handle siting, planting, and transplanting with the aftercare guidance to help new and moved trees thrive.

## What's Included in Every Tree Planting & Transplanting Job

-   Species selection for local soil and climate
-   New-tree planting and siting
-   Established-tree transplanting and relocation
-   Coastal and inland species guidance
-   Aftercare recommendations

## Right Tree, Right Place

The most common tree-planting mistake is putting the wrong species in the wrong spot — a big shade tree too close to a foundation, or a salt-sensitive species where salt-air spray reaches it. Our siting consultation catches these before the tree goes in.

## Species Selection

-   **Native hardwoods** — red maple, red oak, sugar maple, tulip poplar
-   **Salt-tolerant coastal options** — black gum, American holly, Eastern red cedar
-   **Understory / ornamental** — serviceberry, dogwood, redbud
-   **Fast-growing** — river birch, sweet gum (where appropriate)

 for species-by-site recommendations.

## Transplanting

Moving an established tree for landscaping, an addition, or a construction project is possible with the right root-ball preparation and timing. We assess feasibility before quoting.

## Aftercare

Establishment is the critical first 1–3 years — regular watering, mulch maintenance (not volcano mulching!), and light structural pruning as needed. You get a written aftercare guide with every planting.

FAQ

## Tree Planting & Transplanting Questions Westchester Homeowners Ask

### What trees grow best in Westchester?

+

Hardy natives — red maple, oak, serviceberry — do well. Coastal properties benefit from salt-tolerant species like black gum or American holly.

### When is the best time to plant?

+

Spring and fall for establishment in Westchester's climate.

### How far from the house should I plant?

+

Depends on mature size. Large shade trees typically 20–30 ft from foundations; we help site them properly.

### Can you transplant a large established tree?

+

Yes — with a large enough root ball and proper timing. Size and species affect success rates.

### Which trees grow best in Westchester's soil and climate?

+

We match species to your site — salt-tolerant selections near the Sound and hardy inland species elsewhere. We assess soil, drainage, and sun before recommending what will thrive on your property.
