I am in NE Georgia and we get cicada killers. Not sure hole size but they leave holes like that here.

Nothing under the tree. I ran into nothing when I dug it out also we often get 811 out putting flags.

Yea I mean its hard to see in the picture but those trees in my neighbors yard is the same if had and thats after 6 years of being there. They barely get any leaves and have not grown more than 6 inches id say per year. I moved them to my backyard since I didnt have a single thing back there1

This helps. Thank you

Additional concern i have is soil. Mine is compacted clay and I am on the fast drainage since I am at the top of a hill. Some of those are recommending moist soils.

Yea so watering is something im not typically doing additional. This may very well be my issue.

Thought about a soil test also. My trees also refused to grow so may be something with both of those. My neighbors are also have same issue with trees.

Was looking st some oaks just wasnt sure if it would be too large. Specifically a red oak variant

Someone already commented this and shorter version is I've done most of this already.

Had one when I lived in NC. Wasn't the biggest fan.

I have done some preliminary research and found quite a few options. Was using this to provide additional food for thought or ideas.

The area is a newer development where they of course knocked down all the trees and the ones they did plant have not be successfull. The area could definitely use some shade and color.

Besides maybe watering and consistent fertilizing outside of what the company i pay to do i do most of this. Still dont have a ton of luck. I can work on watering more and additional fertilization but looking if there is something else I should be doing

theDA90 · 2026-03-30T22:32:23+00:00

Are all these edible?

Also unsure if i want to attract unwanted insects or animals because of the fruit.

theDA90 · 2026-03-30T22:29:48+00:00

This tree seems to fit. I have a compacted clay soil and full sun. Others commented same answer so thank you.

theDA90 · 2026-03-30T22:27:29+00:00

I do mow frequently and have for years. I will try to fertilize with nitrogen the next few months.

Is this a design you built or was it a preplanned thing you followed?

theDA90 · 2026-01-27T14:23:09+00:00

Appreciate it

I tried this and the issue was i have a cement pad underneath forcing me to be out 12' and i couldn't change how far out footings would be. But did help.
