As always , trees and tree leaves , plants and plant leaves , have a Negative Effect on Broadcast Tv Reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own roofs and buildings.

Some and not all Negative Effects are

Absorbing , Blocking , Reception

Multi-Path reflecting Tv signals bouncing all around.

The Best Practice is to install the antenna at a location and height above ground that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own roofs and buildings.
