Wants Malus 'Spring Snow' between window sets on mulberry brick front. Two-tier Versa-Lok wall (5" + 4') runs along driveway, 3-4 ft from planting spot. Planting beds between tiers and across front. Other plants: liriope, roses, holly, potentilla, spirea. Needs height. Alternatives if tree unsuitable.
First: Consider mature size, root habit, maintenance. Versa-Lok not ideal near aggressive roots. Need soil, water, fertilizer compatibility with existing plants.
Follow-up: Without site plan, can't give best advice. Common errors: planting too close to foundation, choosing naturally large/sprawling plants. Determine mature dimensions vs. fascia clearance. Send scanned site plan/design sketch/photos for specific recommendations.
