Spring 2021 Tree Planting Program
You have the opportunity to help the environment of Royal Oak by planting a tree (or trees). In our Spring Tree Planting Program, you can select from a number of lovely trees, for planting on public or private property, at a very reasonable price.
- Trees can be planted on city right-of-way or delivered for you to plant on private property
- Street trees are 1 1/2” in diameter, 10 to 12 feet tall, and are balled and burlapped.
- Limit of 2 trees per residence.
- Tree survival is NOT guaranteed. Residents need to keep trees watered (5 gallons of water – twice a week).
Take this opportunity to assist Royal Oak in retaining the title of “Tree City U.S.A."
