: I'm looking for FAST GROWING TREES..
: NYC kid needs help!!
A suburban yard may or may not have the space for
lots of trees. "Fast" means also "large" in many
cases. How big is your yard? how much room do you
want to devote to your forest?
Some fast trees.
Nothern hackberry
Giant sequoia
Norway spruce
Kentucky coffee tree
Sycamore
Pecan
Hickory
All of these should be able to put on 3 or more
feet of hight per year and will all grow into
substantial trees. In some cases real BIG trees.
Some are messier'n others. Each probably aught
to be planted with 20 or 40 foot spacing.
