I'm creating a planting plan for a project in the Puget Sound area and am wondering if anyone can offer advice on what native tree species are most successful when transplanted at a larger caliper. Looking at garry oak, bigleaf maple, paper birch, and quaking aspen for larger deciduous, but also open to planting smaller deciduous at a large size (vine maple, cascara, pacific dogwood, beaked hazelnut). Evergreen options are douglas fir, sitka spruce, western hemlock, grand fir, and incense cedar. Are there any red flags for planting these trees at a larger size or things to be aware of? Or advice on which ones are the most successful at establishing? Thanks in advance!
