We love huge, majestic trees, and one of our favorites is our Oak tree! Here are 4 ways Oak Trees improve your landscape and home:
- One way Oak Trees improve your landscape is by bringing beautiful Autumn gold and burnt orange color to your Fall landscape. It’s a beautiful tree and the leaf colors attract the eye.
- The second way Oak Trees improve your landscape is by hosting hundreds of species of butterflies, caterpillars, insects, squirrels and birds. Butterflies lay their eggs on the leaves. Butterflies are pollinators, which helps vegetable plants.
- The third way Oak Trees improve your home is by providing shade in the heat of summer. Our Oak Tree blocks the hot afternoon sun, which keeps our home cooler than normal, and saves money!
- The fourth way Oak Trees improve your landscape is by increasing curb appeal! Curb appeal increases the value of your property. Healthy trees improve the asthetics of your home and neighborhood.
