Where to Plant Proven Winners® Trees

These trees are incredibly versatile. Plant them:

• As front yard statement trees
  

• In flowering borders
  

• Along walkways or patios
  

• In large containers
  

They thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Be sure to match your USDA hardiness zone with the specific tree variety for best results.

How to Care for Proven Winners® Trees

Proven Winners® trees are bred to be low-maintenance. Provide regular watering, especially during establishment and dry spells. Fertilize in early spring with a slow-release fertilizer formulated for trees and shrubs. Light pruning after blooming (for flowering trees) or in late winter (for structural shaping) will keep your tree looking its best year after year.

What Makes Proven Winners® Trees Special?

Unlike standard nursery trees, Proven Winners® varieties are selected for their long bloom time, disease resistance, unique form, and season-long interest. These are not your average ornamentals—they’re better, brighter, and built to thrive with minimal upkeep.
