Cedar elm is native, but not the most exciting shade tree. I planted
a Chinese pistache 5 years ago as a sapling and it's 15 feet now.
Ginkgo biloba is a beautiful shade tree and is the only tree to
survive on the earth since the Jurasic period.

Thanks for the input.

Since I'm in the hill country with little top soil & a limestone base.
What

Thanks!
