Any recs for where purchase and planting? Don't want a box store tree. Appreciate it!

The only one worth it is L:ive Oak but
it needs PLENTY of room, at least 30ft in every direction and
have it pro installed w/warranty min 30gal
and always phone garden shows for free advice about concerns along the way.

Less space?
(not evergreen)
Any red oak
Chinese Pistache

Aggieland recs, whereever you are IDK
Brazos Valley Tree Farm
Producers Coop

Go to Enchanted Forest in Richmond or RCW Nursery on NW side.

RCW grows their own trees in Plantersville.

Both are top nurseries for trees.


Many choices for large trees but go look at those two places and pick what you like.

FWIW, I think it's worth waiting until November to plant a large tree. To give it time to get through transplant shock and establish a root system before going through stress of summer.

Good info - thanks!

Moon Valley Nurseries has large trees and can plant them for you. I have never used them so can't vouch for their quality.
