What types of trees should I plant?

I'm thinking about planting some trees in my yard. What types do you recommend?

It depends on your climate, soil type, and the space you have. Are you looking for shade, fruit, or ornamental trees?

I want something that provides shade and is low maintenance.

Consider planting oak or maple trees. They provide excellent shade and are relatively low maintenance once established.

What about fruit trees? Any suggestions?

Apple and pear trees are great options if you have enough space. They offer delicious fruit and can also provide some shade.

How long does it take for these trees to grow?

It varies, but most trees take several years to mature. For example, apple trees can take 3-5 years to start producing fruit.
