If you are shopping around to find a tree to plant in your yard, you may want to avoid planting certain trees. Here are a few examples of trees you may want to avoid.
One example to avoid planting is a Siberian Elm tree. These trees can tolerate difficult growing conditions, but they are considered messy. It is also a weak-wooded tree, which means it can be prone to ice and storm damage. Another example you may want to avoid is a Lombardy Poplar tree. These trees are quick-growing trees and provide a nice screen, but they have a relatively short life of about 15 years. A Callery Pear tree is another tree to avoid planting. These trees have pretty white flowers. Though they are also another weak-wooded tree that is susceptible to storm damage in areas with wind, snow, or ice. They are also considered an invasive species in many states. The last tree to avoid planting is the Tree of Heaven. This tree can be hard to landscape around because it gives off a chemical that kills competing vegetation. It can also be considered dirty, invasive, and messy.
These are just a few trees you may want to avoid planting in your yard.
