Planning a Windbreak With Clarke McNary Trees
Clarke-McNary trees return next spring, and Cheyenne County windbreaks should include five or more rows with at least three conifers. Plant conifers on the north and west, cedars best, pines usable but spaced from Chinese Elm, and Siberian elm as a broadleaf interim. Prepare seedbeds, keep rows weed free, plant in dry ground with watering if possible, and use a tree planter from the district to assist large plantings.
