This year for both Earth Day and Arbor Day, I ordered 10 hybrid poplars from the Arbor Day Foundation. They included a free red maple and two forsythias! I got those planted on the west side of my 1 acre lot to provide future shade for my home here on the nearly treeless southern plain of west Texas. Additionally, I put in a drip system to keep them all watered. I look forward to sitting in the shade of these fast growing trees in a few years!
