Few trees are native to the Wenatchee Valley in Central Washington area and those we choose to plant face hot summer temperatures and arid conditions. Trees are an asset to our landscapes and home values and usually increase in value over time. It is worth the homeowner\u2019s time to research options and select a tree for its tolerance for our weather and the eventual height and placement in our landscapes.  We call it, \u201cRight plant, right place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also is wise to take time to plant this asset properly so it will appreciate in value for our landscape. Here are links that help us identify which tree to plant, how to plant it, and how to prune it. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n
