Street trees are on the front line of urban forest service delivery, supporting neighbourhood character, human health, waterway health, biodiversity, tourism and business vitality. However, in order to deliver these benefits, street trees must be well suited to local climate and conditions now and into the future.
This Nursery Paper provides an overview of how production nurseries, councils and landscape architects can design and implement street tree trials to determine the suitability of specific species under certain conditions. Although street tree trials are likely to be led and implemented by local councils, urban planners and landscape architects, growers have an active and crucial role to play.
