The success of a new tree depends on what happens beneath the soil. Whether you are planting in Wisconsin, Iowa, or Minnesota, proper tree planting begins with a focus on root structure. Many trees fail early because they are not set up for long-term health from the start.

A common issue in modern landscapes is incorrect tree planting depth. When a tree is placed too deep in the soil, it struggles for oxygen. This often leads to the development of stem girdling roots, which eventually choke the tree as it grows. Traditional container methods often ignore these defects, leaving the tree to struggle for years.

We use air root-pruning technology to solve these problems before the tree ever reaches your property. Our system creates a robust root system that mimics how trees grow in a natural forest. We are so confident in our methods that we offer a 5-year warranty on our trees. Choosing a Legacy tree means choosing a future for your landscape that will last.
