Allow Room for Mature Growth

Ornamental & Small-Space Trees

Smaller-growing trees can bring flowers, foliage, form and seasonal interest to compact yards, foundation beds and entrance plantings.

  • Eastern Redbud
  • Flowering Cherry
  • Japanese Maple
  • Japanese Tree Lilac

“Small tree” is relative. Confirm the mature height and canopy width of the specific cultivar before planting.

Trees Known for Fall Color

These trees are commonly selected for colorful autumn foliage in shades of yellow, orange, red or burgundy.

  • American Hornbeam
  • Black Gum
  • Dogwood
  • Ginkgo
  • Japanese Maple
  • Paperbark Maple
  • Red Maple
  • Serviceberry

Fall color intensity can vary with cultivar, weather, sunlight, soil conditions and seasonal temperatures.

Trees That Tolerate Moist or Periodically Wet Soil

These trees can tolerate moist soil or periods of poor drainage better than many common landscape trees.

  • American Hornbeam
  • Bald Cypress
  • Black Gum
  • Pin Oak
  • Red Maple
  • River Birch
  • Serviceberry
  • Swamp White Oak
  • Sweetbay Magnolia
Wet-Tolerant Does Not Mean Permanently Submerged

Soil moisture tolerance varies. Standing water, compacted soil and damaged drainage should still be evaluated before planting.

Trees for Salt, Roadside & Coastal Exposure

These trees are commonly considered more tolerant of salt, wind or difficult urban conditions than many sensitive species.

  • American Holly

  • Ginkgo
  • Honeylocust
  • Japanese Tree Lilac
  • London Planetree
  • Pitch Pine
  • Red Oak
  • Serviceberry
  • Thornless Cockspur Hawthorn
  • Zelkova
Exposure Conditions Matter

Tolerance to airborne coastal salt is not always the same as tolerance to concentrated road salt in soil. Direct salt spray, wind exposure and drainage should all be considered.

Trees Generally Less Preferred by Deer

These trees are commonly considered less attractive to deer than many highly preferred landscape plants. No tree is completely deer-proof.

  • American Holly
  • American Hornbeam
  • Bald Cypress
  • Eastern Redbud
  • Ginkgo
  • Honeylocust
  • Japanese Tree Lilac
  • Kousa Dogwood
  • Paperbark Maple
  • River Birch
  • Sweetgum
  • Tulip Tree
  • Witch Hazel
Protect Young Trees

Deer preferences vary by neighborhood, season and population pressure. Young trunks and low branches may require guards, repellent or temporary fencing.

These lists are general planning guides. Mature size, hardiness, site tolerance and resistance can vary by species and cultivar. Please confirm the specific tree’s requirements before planting.

Look Up Before You Plant

Before purchasing a tree, check for overhead wires, underground utilities, nearby buildings, sidewalks, driveways, pools and property lines. Select a tree that will fit the location at maturity—not just at the size it is today.

Sunlight, drainage, soil compaction, wind, salt exposure and deer activity can all influence long-term performance.
