The right tree, for the right spot.
Size, soil, sun, lines and storms all matter when choosing a tree. We help you pick species that fit your yard, your goals and Middle Tennessee's climate.

What it is, and why it matters.
A tree that will reach sixty feet does not belong three feet from a house. A tree that needs full sun will struggle on a north wall. And a tree that splits in ice storms is a poor choice over a roof. Choosing well is the cheapest tree care there is.
Nashville Tree Service builds planting plans for yards, lots and neighborhoods across Middle Tennessee. We consider mature size, sun, soil, drainage, power lines and your own tastes, then recommend a short list of trees and where each should go.
Four things done right.
Fits the space
We choose trees by mature size, not nursery size.
Resilient choices
We favor trees that handle local weather and soil.
Seasonal interest
Blooms, fall color and winter bark are considered.
A clear plan
You get a map and a species list.

25Tree Selection and Planting Plans: common questions
Which trees are good for shade in Middle Tennessee?
Oaks, maples, tulip poplars and some elms are popular shade trees, but each has strengths and limits. We help you pick for your space.
Are native trees better?
They often handle local conditions well, but many non-natives do fine. We balance both.
How do I get an estimate for tree selection and planting plans?
Fill in the form or call or text 615-431-3789. A few photos and a rough height usually give us what we need, and we send a written price. Larger jobs start with a short visit.
