Planting trees in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will depend a lot on where in the state you live – whether that's in Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh, Gettysburg, Old Forge, or Scranton – and what benefit you expect from the tree.

The Best Trees for Planting in Pennsylvania

Specimen tree choices for Pennsylvania yards will include those that are highly adaptable to the PA climate, and also show good drought resistance as well as mildew, insect and disease resistance for known problems in your area.

The best types of trees to look for will be those that are fast-growing, hardy, and are even native Pennsylvania trees, such as Flowering Dogwoods. For cooling shade from that scorching Pennsylvania summer sun, we suggest Tulip Poplars, Autumn Blaze Maple Trees, or Purple Autumn Ash Trees.
