Choose tree locations for their mature setting.
NBU’s tree guidance asks owners to consider mature size and proximity to infrastructure. For new planting in New Braunfels, begin with the long-term role of the tree: shade, screening or framing an entrance. Compare that role with overhead lines, underground services and the room available around future hardscape.
Include the trees that will remain on the property, not just the ones being added. Discuss installation access and establishment care before selecting specimens. When existing trees have condition concerns, separate assessment and any specialist recommendations from the planting quote instead of assuming replacement is the only practical option.
