Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

Before planting a tree, make sure it isn’t an invasive species that can outcompete native plants and disrupt local ecosystems. Fast-growing trees like the Bradford pear tree, tree of heaven and Norway maple may look appealing but can quickly spread, crowd out native trees and reduce biodiversity. These species often alter soil chemistry and light conditions, making it harder for native plants and wildlife to thrive. Instead, choose regionally appropriate native trees.
