Shade Trees are measured by their calliper which is the diameter of the trunk.  We use trees at 50mm calliper for our standard quote size.  These trees will most often be 12-13 feet in height depending on the species.  We do have smaller trees, from seedlings to 30mm, and larger stock in wire baskets to 100mm.
