A Reminder About Hardiness Zones<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Here in Indiana, our hardiness zones are 5b, 6a, and 6b.\nSince out state falls within more than one zone, so be sure you know exactly\nwhere you live. If you choose a tree that is not well-suited for your hardiness\nzone, you can expect it to have problems with growth and sustainability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Water Tolerance in Trees<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
A water tolerant, or flood-resistant<\/em>, tree will be\nable to withstand, and ultimately, survive, the conditions it is exposed to standing\nwater over a period of time. Examples of such trees that are compatible with Indiana\nhardiness zones include River Birch, Weeping Willow, Bald Cypress, and believe it\nor not, Red Maple. Additional water tolerant tree species to consider include\nHackberry, Black Tupelo, American Sweetgum, and Overcup Oak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2766 River Birch (Betula nigra<\/em>) \u2013<\/strong> Appositely named, this tree is found growing naturally along the banks of rivers. Not only is it water-tolerant, it is also resistant to birch borers, and grows quite rapidly during peak season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2766 Weeping Willow (Salix babylonica<\/em>) \u2013<\/strong> As one of the most common water-tolerant tree species, they are often planted along the banks of ponds, lakes and rivers. They take root fast, change color, and reach exquisite heights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2766 Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum<\/em>) \u2013<\/strong> A classic swamp staple, this tree can easily survive standing or floodwaters. Although a water-tolerant species, it also does quite well in yards and landscaping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2766 Red Maple (Acer rubrum<\/em>) \u2013<\/strong> Unexpectedly, but quite astonishingly, these trees can withstand floodwaters well. Best of all, they can grow in both dry and wet soil conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With a lot of rain comes standing water, which in turn can\ndamage vulnerable or weakened trees. If floodwaters have caused a tree to drown\nor topple over on your property, contact a licensed tree removal professional\nas soon as possible. They can also provide further assessment to ensure no\nother trees are at risk of falling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Call Timberland Tree Care at 317-348-0811<\/strong> to schedule your needed Indianapolis tree removal services<\/a> for your residential or commercial property.
