The 10-20-30 rule in tree planting suggests planting trees at least 10 feet apart, ensuring they have enough space to grow, with a minimum of 20 feet from structures for safety and health, and planting no more than 30% of the available space to promote healthy growth and reduce competition. This guideline helps ensure proper spacing for tree development and longevity. Tree planting professionals often follow these principles to optimize tree health and landscape design.
