Trees for Residential Properties
When selecting trees for a residential property, the possibilities are plentiful. Certain trees can provide ample shade, seasonal flowers, evergreen foliage, or brilliant Autumn colours. Ellenby has decades of experience recommending the perfect trees to complement homes and gardens.
Some top options for residential properties include:
Native trees | Offering both water-wise resilience and firewise while adorning your landscape with vibrant hues of red, orange, and yellow, creating a haven of natural beauty and practicality.
Flowering trees | For seasonal blooms, flowering trees like Cercis, Magnolia, Crabapple, Redbud, and Ornamental Plum trees are ideal. They provide colour in Spring or Summer, without taking up too much space.
Evergreen trees | Evergreen trees maintain foliage year-round, enhancing surroundings with enduring greenery, whether screening neighbours, or cultivating a tropical ambiance. They provide privacy, windbreaks, and structure during winter. Some compact evergreens work well even for small yards.
Shade trees | For ample shade on hot days, Oak, Elm, Gleditsia and Eucalyptus trees have broad canopies. They can lower air conditioning costs when planted wisely around the home.
Ornamental trees | Small ornamental trees like Crepe Myrtle, and Prunus make beautiful focal points without overpowering the landscape.
The right trees can increase property values, clean the air, provide wildlife habitat, and make your residential property more inviting. Ellenby will help select the perfect trees for your specific needs and climate
