We install tree species native to the Georgian Bay region that are proven to thrive here—white pine for year-round screening, sugar maple for spectacular fall colour, red oak for longevity and shade, and birch for visual interest. Every tree is selected based on your property's soil type, drainage, sun exposure, and the role it needs to fill in your landscape design.


Why wait years for shade and privacy? We install caliper-sized and mature trees that provide immediate impact on your Midland property. Our team has the equipment to transport, position, and plant large specimens safely—including on properties with challenging access common along Georgian Bay's waterfront. Proper planting depth, staking, and watering protocols ensure successful establishment.
We select trees rated for Zone 5b that establish quickly in Simcoe County's soil conditions and require minimal long-term care. Proper planting technique—including root preparation, soil amendment, mulching, and initial watering schedules—gives every tree the strongest possible start. Combined with our garden planting services, we create complete layered landscapes.


Tree placement shapes how your property functions for decades. We position shade trees to cool patios and decks in summer, plant evergreen windbreaks to shelter against Georgian Bay winter winds, and install ornamental trees to frame views and entrances. Every placement considers mature size, root spread, and proximity to structures and utilities.

Trees are the most impactful single element in any landscape. They provide shade, privacy, wind protection, wildlife habitat, and year-round visual interest. At Forty Five Scapes, we install trees for residential and commercial properties across Midland, Penetanguishene, Tiny Township, Tay Township, and the broader Georgian Bay region. From single specimen trees to complete property tree plans, we handle selection, delivery, planting, and establishment care.
We specialize in trees native to our area that have evolved to handle Simcoe County's conditions. White pine provides fast-growing evergreen screening and windbreak protection. Sugar maple delivers the iconic fall colour that defines Ontario autumns. Red oak offers long-lived shade with strong branching structure. Paper birch adds distinctive white bark and graceful form. Eastern white cedar creates dense privacy hedges that thrive in our climate.
Beyond native species, we install ornamental trees that add focal interest to your landscape. Flowering crabapples for spring blooms, Japanese maples for texture and colour in sheltered locations, and serviceberry for multi-season appeal with spring flowers, summer berries, and fall colour. We match ornamental selections to your property's microclimate and your landscape design goals.
Strategically placed shade trees reduce summer cooling costs and make outdoor living spaces more comfortable during July and August heat. Evergreen windbreaks along the north and west sides of your property shelter against prevailing Georgian Bay winter winds, reducing heating costs and creating more comfortable outdoor spaces. We design tree placement as part of your overall landscape plan for maximum functional benefit.
A tree is only as good as how it is planted. We dig planting holes to the correct width and depth, amend soil based on Simcoe County's local conditions, set the root flare at grade, apply proper mulch rings, and provide staking only when needed. Our post-planting care instructions ensure your new trees establish strong root systems in their first critical years.
