First I would like to thank you for impression the need to present back where on earth you have have to take away from our mud!!
Any tree you plant will need plenty of river the first year until the root have become established. You will also hold to decide whether you want a tree which loses it's leaves if so oaks are unbelievably useful to frequent wild critters, but for pines are critter loving trees too. Don't forget those nut trees, pecans are falling now and society and critters are out gathering up those nuts right immediately. Holly are beautiful trees during the winter beside their red berries and the birds love them. Dog wood is one of my favorite! They have great shape and magnificent flowers and berries.
the Arbor day foundation's web-site have some great advise and can possibly help you dictatorial down your tree choice. Best of luck!

Try Cornflower Farms within Elk Grove, they have tons of local plants and specialize in local habitats.
