I know this is totally off topic but folks on this forum know way more about trees than gardening/landscaping forums!
so I’m looking to add a few trees to my side yard. It’s about 150ft by 50ft and is south facing so it get full sun. This is the criteria I’m looking for.
- no invasive roots
- doesn’t get taller than 40
- no major insect or fungus issues
- long lived trees, no disease problems
- flowering would be ideal but not a must
-ideally have a nice bark and winter interest
so far the only thing that comes to my mind is crape myrtles they are too common but they don’t have disease issues like cherries.
I appreciate everyone’s input. Here are a few pics. I already planted the Italian cypress so those will be part of the design.
