Home Landscaping Projects Freshen Up Your Yard

One of the easiest ways to freshen up your property is to undertake a home landscaping project. You can hire a professional landscaper if your budget allows or you can take on your home landscaping upgrades as a weekend project. Okay, maybe it will take several weekends depending on the size and scope of your project. In either case, you will likely be adding a few new trees to complement the existing greenery in your yard. We have a few suggestions to get you started.

Popular Home Landscaping Trees

Here is a shortlist of some of the most popular, smaller trees that are perfect for your home landscaping project. Consider the Sargent Crabapple, the Purpleleaf Sand Cherry tree, the Cornelian Cherry, and the Ann Magnolia. If you want something a little bit larger, some of the more common medium sized landscaping trees include the Japanese Red Maple, the Red Cloud Dogwood, and the Pink Dogwood.

If you are trying to add even more color to your outdoor living space, you should consider planting a few flowering trees. You may want to consider a Saucer Magnolia, Yoshino Cherry, or Purple Leaf Plum tree. Flowering Crepe Myrtles will add color to your landscape as well. All of these flowering trees will bring your yard to life and add a touch of character to your landscape.

Suitable Planting Locations

Before you make your tree purchase, consult the experts at your local nursery or garden center. They can provide guidance on which trees are best suited for your growing climate and specific circumstances. They can also provide advice on suitable planting locations for the various species. Does the tree like sun or shade? Can the tree be planted on a hill? How wide will the mature tree become, and therefore how close can the tree be planted to your home?

Securing Your Newly Planted Trees

Whether you are panting a seedling or replanting a fully-grown tree you will need to secure your newly planted trees. In some cases, you will need to provide supports for the tree for more than a year. Regardless of the size or location of the tree there is a right way and a wrong way to safely and properly secure a tree. Simply follow the instructions on the Safe-STAKE package to protect your tree, your family, and your pets. Follow this link to BUY Safe-STAKE Tree Stakes NOW.
