Additional Information
Street Trees are available to plant from November to March. We can facilitate planting outside of this window, but we will not be able to guarantee the tree within the first year if it dies.
Tree pricing includes a one-time maintenance package of planting, initial mulching, staking, and one-time watering at planting. After that, it is the responsibility of the tree purchaser to water and maintain the tree(s).
Trees are always subject to availability. While we cannot assure a specific tree request, we can send over photos once your tree is secured. We are also happy to recommend available trees to suit your planting location.

Tree Registry
Harris County established the tree registry to encourage the preservation of exceptional trees. The tree registry is where the largest trees in the county by native or naturalized species are documented.
The Harris County Tree Registry depends significantly on the Texas Forest Service for its creation and maintenance. We have always been proud to work with the Texas Forest Service. In this project, we are also being joined by American Forests. Click here for measuring rules and procedures, as defined by the State of Texas.
