At Top Leaf Tree Service, we help Scottsdale residents beat the harsh desert sun by tree planting perfect shade trees. Our certified arborists assess the soil and yard space to choose the best trees, like Desert Willow or Palo Verde.

We protect new trees with shade cloth and provide guidance on proper watering methods. With free consultations, we can help homeowners create cool, shaded spaces that lower energy bills and enhance comfort in their yards.

 

Harsh Arizona Sun Exposure

When tree planting in Scottsdale, the harsh Arizona sun poses a major challenge. We understand how intense UV rays can damage young trees before they establish strong roots.

That's why proper sun protection during the initial few months is key to helping your new tree survive and thrive.

• Place shade cloth around new trees to block harsh sunlight

• Water deeply in early morning to help trees handle afternoon heat

• Choose native species that naturally resist intense sun exposure

• Plant trees on the east side of buildings for natural morning shade

Moreover, selecting native trees that adapt well to the local desert climates enhances their survival rates and resilience. Watch your trees closely during summer months when UV exposure is strongest.

 

Strategic Shade Tree Selection

Choosing the right shade tree makes a huge difference for your Arizona home.

At Top Leaf Tree Service, we help pick trees that work best in our hot climate. The shade tree benefits include cooler temperatures and lower energy bills.

Tree species selection matters because some trees handle our weather better than others.

• Desert Willow trees grow fast and create pretty purple flowers

• Palo Verde trees stay green all year and need little water

• Chinese Elm trees make thick shade and don't drop messy leaves

• Arizona Ash trees grow tall and strong in our desert soil
