Local Trees in the Philadelphia Area
These are the trees found in the suburbs of Philadelphia along with some of their distinguishing features. Contact us if you have any specific questions regarding a certain kind or the best available solutions.
CEDAR ALASKAN (Chamaecyparis Nootkatensis)
Commonly referred to as "Alaskan Cedar," this medium-sized evergreen eventually reaches a height of 40 to 50 feet with a 15-foot spread and a moderate growth rate. The most prevalent type of Alaskan Cedar in our landscapes is called "Pendula," or Weeping Alaskan Cedar. This plant can tolerate a lot of cold and easily adapt to most landscape conditions. Of all the available evergreens, this tree has the most attractive and graceful appearance and is comparatively free of insects and diseases.
ATLAS CEDAR (Cedrus Atlantica)
The Atlas cedar grows quickly when it is young and slowly as it gets older, reaching a maximum height of 40 to 60 feet and a maximum spread of 30 to 40 feet. Depending on the variety, this evergreen's needles might be pale green or silvery blue. This tree may grow in arid, full-sun to partially-shaded areas, although it prefers moist, well-drained soils. The ideal location for it to grow is somewhere open so that it can reach its maximum size and beauty.
GINKGO (Ginkgo Biloba)
The ginkgo, also known as the maidenhair tree, grows slowly to mediumly and eventually reaches a height of 50 to 80 feet. The crown spread varies greatly, with some specimens having a spread of 40 to 50 feet and others having a very narrow and upright appearance. With some estimations placing its age at 200 million years, this tree holds the distinction of being one of the oldest living trees. Fall is a great color combination of gold and yellow. Given full sun, this tree is equally at home as a lawn tree or a street tree due to its extreme adaptability and hardiness.
KOUSA DOGWOOD (Cornus kousa)
This small to medium-sized tree, also known as Korean dogwood or Kousa dogwood, grows slowly to moderately and eventually reaches a height of 20 to 30 feet with an equal spread. This tree often blossoms in May or June, a month after the common dogwood. Usually white, the petals fade to a pale pink. "Satomi" is the name of a cultivar with pink flowers.
SOUTHERN MAGNOLIA (Magnolia Grandiflora)
The Southern Magnolia grows at a leisurely pace, reaching a maximum height of 40 to 50 feet, with a spread of 20 to 30 feet. A dwarf variety known as "Little Gem" grows to a modest size of 15 to 20 feet in height with a 5 to 8 foot spread and has shown itself to be hardy in our area.
WHITE BIRCH (Betula Papyrifera)
A very attractive native plant that is widely used in our area is the white, canoe, or paper birch. It spreads 25 to 40 feet and grows 50 to 70 feet tall at a medium to fast rate. The Bronze Birch Borer, an insect that is at best deformed and frequently deadly, poses the biggest threat to the survival of white birches in our environments. These trees will tolerate a higher pH, but they do best in full sun and acidic soils; repeated dry spells should be avoided, as drought stress is the main element that makes the tree more vulnerable to borer attack.
ZELKOVA (Zelkova Serrata)
The Japanese Zelkova tree grows quickly and can eventually reach a height of 60 to 80 feet with a spread of 40 to 50 feet. The fall colors can vary somewhat and span from yellow to deep red. The terms "green vase" and "village green" refer to two varieties that are widely accessible. The bark of this tree usually starts to exfoliate with age and contributes a great deal to its attractive features; it is equally at home as a street tree or lawn tree and is not sensitive to the pH of the soil. Pruning frequently, starting at a young age, is crucial to reducing structural issues that can destroy semi-mature specimens.
SUGAR MAPLE (Acer saccharum)
Large and slowly growing, the sugar maple (Acer saccharum) is a deciduous tree that thrives in the Adirondack Mountains on well-drained soil. It belongs to the Soapberry Clade. The genus Acer contains roughly twenty species, of which the sugar maple grows in North America. The lifespan of this species is 200–300 years, although some trees in old-growth stands might live up to 400 years.
