The right trees, planted right, for shade and value that grows for decades.
New trees in Manor need to be planted with the blackland clay in mind. Those deep, dense soils east of Austin hold water differently than Hill Country loam, and trees planted shallow or without proper root-flare clearance struggle within a year. Corral Bros knows Manor's prairie ground-we select species that thrive in these conditions and plant deep enough that roots find moisture through the dry summers.
The subdivisions around ShadowGlen, Whisper Valley, and Stonewater are still settling in. Many homeowners here want mature shade fast, and we help you pick trees that'll deliver it without fighting the soil. We handle the whole job: species selection matched to your lot and sun exposure, proper depth and staking, deep-water establishment watering, and mulch that protects through your first season.

Fall through winter is the best time to plant trees in Central Texas, giving roots several months to establish before summer heat. Spring is the next-best window. Fall-planted trees need the least supplemental water to get going.
Live oak, bur oak, and native pecan do well here. Crape myrtles, sycamores, and hackberries also handle blackland clay fine. We avoid species that rot in heavy soils. During your free estimate, we'll recommend based on your yard's drainage, sun, and how much shade you want in five and ten years.
Manor's blackland clay stays wet around tree roots if they're planted too shallow. We plant deep, clear the root flare so bark isn't buried, and mulch properly. This prevents rot and lets roots breathe. It's the biggest difference between trees that thrive and ones that fail in this soil type.
Cost varies by species, size, and site work. We give free, no-obligation on-site estimates that break down the whole plan and price. Call (737) 404-9343 to schedule. Most estimates happen within 48 hours, and we're transparent about what you're paying for.
Late fall through early spring is ideal when soil moisture is stable and trees aren't stressed by heat. We can plant in summer if you commit to deep watering through August and September. We'll discuss your timeline and set up a watering plan that matches Manor's weather.
We stake young trees for the first year, mulch properly to retain moisture in that clay, and give you a deep-water establishment schedule. That first season is critical in Manor-consistent moisture beats occasional soaking. We'll walk you through what your tree needs.
