Street tree advice
I would like to plant a tree on the sidewalk grass strip in front of
my house that will eventually grow into a tall, graceful shade tree (no fruit trees, please). The strip is less than 5 feet wide, but I have seen some pretty big trees growing in strips that size in the area. I would like to avoid trees with shallow, invasive roots (my perennial garden is less than 10 feet away), and would be looking for one that has beautiful fall color. I live in Providence, Rhode Island (zone 5), and the location faces south. I don't mind slow growers, because I see this as a tree for future generations, and I would like my garden to get some more sun in the near future. |
