Benefits of Evergreen Plants and Trees

Evergreen plants and trees provide beauty all year long and bring life to even the most dreary winter days. Not only are evergreen plants and trees aesthetically pleasing and a great natural winter barrier from the elements – they can also help add value to your home and conserve energy. Evergreen plants can help keep in energy you pay to heat your home, since they provide a barrier that help keep warm air in and cold air out. Evergreen trees and plants also do a great job of filtering air and providing oxygen.

Landscaping Ideas For Evergreen Plants and Trees

When choosing and designing with evergreen plants and trees, it’s important to choose ones that will work best in your climate. Depending on your climate and soil type of your area, there are certain plants and trees that are more suited for winter conditions. For example, evergreen trees like Blue Spruce, Junipers, Douglas Firs, and White Pines are great options for colder climates, while Thuja Greens, Bur Oak, and Lodgepole Pine trees thrive in warmer climates.

You’ll also want to consider the size and space around the plants and trees – make sure you leave enough room for them to grow bigger. For smaller spaces, evergreen shrubs, such as Boxwood, Barberry, Rhododendrons, Azaleas, and Honeysuckle are great options for adding evergreen elements without taking up too much space.
