Choose Green Landscaping: Canopy Trees, Shrubs, and Groundcover

The installation of more canopy trees, understory trees, shrubs, and groundcovers in the landscape decreases unnecessary lawn areas. This also produces more shade (cooling), oxygen, and diversity in the landscape. Trees and Shrubs add value to your property, can cut down on heating and cooling of your home, provide food, benefit birds and beneficial insects, improve soil health, provide for clean water, and so much more. You’ll see many benefits within two year:

• Little or no Irrigation Needed. Healthy trees act as a natural filter for our water supply. The canopies and root systems help control storm water runoff, flooding, and erosion.
• Lower Energy Bills: The installation of deciduous canopy trees on the east and west side of buildings aids the cooling of buildings in the summer, and allows the heating of the buildings in the winter after leaf fall.  Trees cool our air naturally by combining effects of water evaporation from their leaves and providing direct shade. Trees planted around a home or business can reduce heating and cooling costs from 15-30%.
• Less Maintenance:  Green landscaping leverages the natural environment’s self-managing capaibilities to minimize the pruning, watering, and replanting required by many landscape designs.
• Edible Plants: The installation of edible landscaping and vegetable gardens cuts down on trips to the store.
• Less Fertilizer or Pesticide Use: Green landscaping requires little or no use of fertilizer and pesticides, thus reducing the environmental impact of your property, and ensuring that you can enjoy your land without worrying about being in contact with dangerous chemicals.

Long term benefits include:

• Economic Value: Not only do healthy trees and other green landscape additions add value to your home, trees are good for business too. Research shows that consumers respond positively to shopping in business districts that are shaded.
• Diversifying our Environment: through the use of a wide variety of native, uncommon native, and non-invasive introductions in the landscape – decreases our impact on the environment, and gives us a better quality of lif
• Air Quality: Trees are natural air filters too! Trees provide oxygen, but the also remove harmful particles from our air, including dust, ozone, ammonia, and sulfur dioxide
