Trees Either: In a rustic garden the trees either should be fruit trees either wherever possible, or at least blossom trees either of some kind. Apples, pears, plums, and cherries will all help to create the right atmosphere, as will nut trees either such as hazel or almond. If there is space for a large tree, a Walnut might do.
Velop unhindered and avoid planting ecimens that will outgrow available space, onsider the habit of the trees either as well as eir flowers, foliage and berry color, and ant them where their form can be ipreciated. In confined spaces fastigiate olumnar) trees either are best, but where space «ds to be filled those with spreading anches are ideal. For small backyards, lect trees either with several attractive features tiich can be enjoyed for much of the year, ther than those that have only a ectacular but brief blossoming period, rergreen trees either provide form and interest all ar around although many deciduous trees either : attractive even when bare.
trees either can affect nearby buildings, sating shade and extracting water from the bsoil, which brings the risk of subsidence. ant large trees either away from buildings if issible. The ground under deciduous trees either 11 have to be cleared of leaves in the fall, ir this reason, do not position pools or ndboxes under their canopies.
Unless you have enough ground to form a small arboretum, trees either must of necessity be regarded as background or framework plants. Because trees either are so important, they should be chosen carefully and positioned strategically. For a small garden, choose smaller trees either, with the emphasis on those that are relatively slow growing. If there are established trees either in the garden, try to make use of them, as nothing gives a greater sense of maturity.
Not only do these provide interesting contrasts of foliage texture and color throughout the year, they also act as a foil for many deciduous shrubs. |
