Good afternoon,
I have a home above 8,000 feet above Boulder and we just recently lost 5 old trees in the March windstorm. We are looking to replace some of those trees and before purchasing are looking for advice on what to plant, and any other considerations we should make before adding any trees to our property. i.e., best time to plant, size, species, soil amendment, etc.
Thank you.
