Washington Trees

Homeowners in Washington are proud of their Evergreen State residential landscapes. When they’re looking for fast-growing trees that will quickly provide dense shade during the summer months they turn to the Fast Growing Tree Nursery. Which trees you choose to plant in your Washington State garden will depend on where you live – the Olympic Mountains, the Coast Range, the Puget Sound Lowlands, the Cascade Mountains and the Columbia Plateau - and the benefits you expect from the tree.

The Best Trees for Planting in Washington

Good considerations for tree choices in WA will always include species that are highly adaptable to the climate, which is divided by the Cascade Mountains. The western regions of the state are quite mild, as are the middle and southeastern Atlantic Coastal regions. The latter is also one of the rainiest areas in the whole world. Washington’s eastern regions, however, experience hot summers, cold winters, and little rainfall. At Fast Growing Trees Nursery, we can help you find trees and shrubs that will easily adapt to your Washington environment.

We know you want fast-growing trees that are hardy. If you live in Washington’s cooler western regions, consider the popular Hybrid Poplar, the disease-resistant Chinese Chestnut, or the low-maintenance Sourwood Tree.

If you’re looking for a tree that will grow quickly to provide dense shade during the warmer months, the American Beech is a winner, as are its compatriots the American Sycamore, American Elm and the Sweetbay Magnolia.

If you want to add lively color to your garden, we have a whole palate to choose from, with the vibrant reds of the Red Sunset and Profusion Crabapple, purples of the Lochinch Butterfly bush and the soft pinks of the Endless Summer Hydrangea and the cheerful Royal Empress. For a touch of gold, choose the Thornless Honeylocust or the Gingko.

To add more shade with a living screen, plant a row of our American Holly, Thuja Giant or Leyland Cypress evergreens. They all grow quickly to form a uniform, living green wall. They are easy to grow and disease resistant. For small but equally effective boundary screens, consider non-invasive Black Bamboo or the variegated Soft Touch Holly.
