A flowering tree can add a lot of character to your backyard. However, planting a flowering tree and caring for it to ensure that it stays healthy and vibrant while it takes up root in your soil is not always easy. You maximize your chances of success when you start with a healthy tree. Keep these tips in mind as you weigh your options.

  • Examine the branch angles of the trees. Look for one that has a wide branch angle, as this makes the branches more resistant to ice and wind damage. Wide angles are also less susceptible to rot and mold damage.
  • If the trees are in the flowering stage while you are looking for one to purchase, make sure the blooms are healthy and full. The number of blooms that a tree sets out is an indicator of its overall health.
  • Purchase trees that have been well-pruned all along. This ensures that the grow into the proper shape.
