Enter your planting area and the mature canopy spread of the tree. This counts how many fit with room to grow, in a row, a grid or staggered lines.
How it works
Trees per row = usable length รท spacing + 1, using mature canopy spread as the on-center spacing. Staggered rows sit 86.6% of a spacing apart.
Before you order
- Plant for the mature size listed on the tag, even when the sapling looks lost.
- Check overhead lines and buried utilities, and call 811 before digging.
- Fruit trees vary by rootstock, so use the spacing for your exact variety.
Common questions
How far apart should I plant trees?
A good starting point is the mature canopy spread, measured center to center.
Can I plant trees closer for a privacy screen?
Yes. Screens are often planted tighter so canopies knit together sooner, and they may need thinning later.
