After
weighing your options and considering all relevant factors, it’s
time to get a tree! You can get a free one
from Greening Milwaukee or take a trip to your local nursery to check
out your options. You can don’t have to be familiar with tree
terminology to have a conversation with a tree specialist at the nursery,
but if you want to know a little more about tree terms before you
go shopping, check out this glossary
of tree terms.
Once you’ve picked out a tree or trees to plant, there are still
several precautions you should take
if you want to avoid digging into a water main or some other such
catastrophe. As long as you’re aware of possible troubles, it’s
easy to avoid them. |

is to hire a tree specialist. To see a list of Milwaukee’s International
