Choose a tree based on available space, sunlight, soil conditions, and your goals such as shade, privacy, or aesthetics. Consider mature size, growth rate, and maintenance requirements. The landscaping experts at Countryside Tree Farms can help you select the perfect tree for your yard.

For year-round privacy, Colorado Spruce or Columnar Spruce are the top choices. For a fast-growing deciduous screen, Swedish Columnar Aspen is extremely popular. For fastest overall growth, Countryside's proprietary Sundancer Poplar establish quickly. Staff can advise on spacing and sizing for your specific property layout.

Columnar spruce and dense evergreens such as Colorado spruce and pine offer excellent year-round privacy. Swedish columnar aspen is a popular deciduous option for seasonal screening.

Fast-growing trees like aspen, and willow establish quickly and provide rapid shade, though they may have shorter lifespans than slower-growing varieties. We grow Sundancer, Tristis, Okanese, Byland Poplar and other fast growing trees and shrubs as well. For help balancing speed, longevity, and maintenance, consult the team at Countryside Tree Farms.

Slow-growing trees like oak and certain ornamental maples develop gradually but are valued for their strength, structure, and long lifespan.

Medium-sized trees typically establish faster than very large ones. They experience less transplant shock and often catch up in growth within a few years.

The two best planting windows in Calgary are spring (May–June) and early fall (September–early October). Pre-ordering trees December–March guarantees availability during these windows and saves 30–50% off regular prices.

The best time to plant trees in Calgary is spring (May–June) and early fall (September–early October). These seasons provide cooler temperatures and consistent moisture, helping roots establish before summer heat or winter frost.

It depends on your zone. Spring (May–June) and early fall (September–early October) are typically the best months to plant trees, as soil temperatures and moisture conditions are ideal for root development. If you're unsure which timing works best for your property, advisors at Countryside Tree Farms can guide you.

Fall is ideal for hardy deciduous trees like elm, maple, and linden. Evergreens can also be planted early in the season with proper watering before freeze-up. During fall, trees are naturally going into dormancy, which means they experience less stress and reduced risk of transplant shock.

Avoid planting during peak summer heat and late fall when the ground begins to freeze. These conditions can stress trees and limit proper root establishment.

Native soil is often sufficient, but adding organic matter such as compost can improve drainage and support healthy root development, especially in clay-heavy soils. For site-specific soil advice, the landscaping team at Countryside Tree Farms is happy to help.

Newly planted trees should be watered deeply once or twice per week, depending on weather and soil conditions. Consistent watering during the first year is essential.
