Climate change is leading to more extreme weather conditions. These can include less precipitation, longer periods of drought, and higher temperatures, as well as heavy rainfall over short periods and prolonged periods of rain.

In the city, temperatures are often even higher, and there is more paved surface. The trees want to transpire more due to the temperature, but that water isn't always available in the soil because of the amount of paved surface and the lack of precipitation.
Trees that can withstand these conditions include Pinus sylvestris (Scots pine) and Betula pendula (silver birch). It is important to note that the latter cannot tolerate paved surfaces.

Examples of trees that can tolerate both dry and wet conditions, produce flowers, and provide shade include Fraxinus pennsylvanica (soft ash) and Phellodendron amurense (Amur cork tree).

It is impossible to provide an exhaustive list of trees here. For every situation, there are always trees that can be selected that are suitable. We’d be happy to advise you on this. Analyzing the site conditions forms the basis of our approach. Together with your desired outcome, we can arrive at a good selection. Please contact us for advice by calling 0411-621964.
