Planting New Tree in New Stump

[Post a Follow Up] [Post to this category]
From: Micaela Olmos City: Hiawassee, GA
Greetings, A 20 year old silver maple with roots at ground surface, 15 feet from house, on quarter acre lot. Beautiful tree but too much. Too much roots, too big tree. Want to cut down and plant a more appropriate tree (size, indigenous, attract wildlife...) in SAME SPOT (minimum funds). Please advise. Thank you.
