Neighborly Trees

Making an effort to find and plant the right tree in a landscape can save you, and your neighborhood, a great deal of trouble for years to come, says USU Extension Specialist Jerry Goodspeed. Good tree choices include the ginko, deodar cedar and the tulip tree. Goodspeed says the trees may be harder to find and cost a little extra money, but that it is worth it.
