Top 10 Trees to Plant in
Hill Country
Hill Country is not your average planting zone. Between the limestone rock lurking six inches below the surface, alkaline water, hungry deer, and summers that regularly top 100 degrees, you need trees that are built for this landscape — not trees that look good at a big box store in April and are dead by August.
We plant trees professionally every week across San Antonio, Boerne, New Braunfels, and everywhere in between. These are the 10 trees we recommend most — and the ones we see thriving decade after decade.
