Evergreen trees are a versatile and invaluable addition to gardens, providing year-round greenery, structure, and wildlife benefits. Here's a comprehensive guide on why and how to grow evergreen trees:

Year-Round Interest:

• Unlike deciduous trees, evergreens retain their foliage throughout the year, adding color and structure to the garden, even in winter.

• Privacy and Windbreaks:

  • Dense foliage makes them ideal for creating screens, hedges, or windbreaks, offering privacy and shelter from cold winds.

• Wildlife Habitat:

  • Provides year-round cover and food for birds, insects, and other wildlife, particularly in winter when other plants are bare.

• Low Maintenance:

  • Most evergreen species are hardy, drought-tolerant, and require minimal care once established.

• Ornamental Appeal:

  • Many species feature striking foliage, cones, or bark, adding decorative value to gardens of all styles.

• Versatility:

  • Suitable for a variety of garden roles, from large specimen trees to small conifers or hedging plants.

• Soil Improvement:

  • Needle drop from some evergreens like pine enriches soil acidity, benefiting acid-loving plants.
