Oh yes, I knwo they get huge. Not at all worried about how big they will get. It will provide oodels of shade. I also really wanna know if I can do every other one? I am concerned that the willows will take water too much from the maple?!?!

For some reason - feels right in my mind - I'd suggest to plant them in groups of their own kind.
I think the arrangement might look bizarre otherwise.

I am thinking that was as well. Now to work on a plan!
Are maples as bad at seeking out water as willows are?

quote:Remember not to plant the willows near any drainage pipes or even your foundation. If you have a septic system they can clog those too. Depending on the type of Maple I think the Willows are generally more aggressive at seeking water.

Our sewer lines are on the other side of the property from where I am planning on planting. They will also be at the end of the yard so as far away from the foundation of the house as they can get.
The maples will be on the side of the house that the water comes in on, but not close to it. They will also be closer to the house.
Guess I should take pics to see if they will work in the spots I want.

Search The Garden Helper:
The willows range from 2 feet to 4 feet tall and the maples are all under 2 feet tall.
My question is can these all be planted in a grouping (willow, maple, willow....) and will they all do well together or should I do them in 2 groupings of 3 each type of plant.
And when is the best time to put these plants in the ground? And finally, how much space should each one have? They will be going in the front yard, along the front and side of the yard which gets sun from the time it comes up until it goes down.
