9. Large trees, 10m+ (windy rural)
Not generally suitable for domestic gardens as the roots can cause issues for nearby buildings and hard landscaping surfaces. The beauty of oaks, beech, ash and the like are perfect for a really large garden where they can be planted some distance from man-made structures. Many have smaller cultivars which is useful as trees in this group take many years to reach full maturity.
