Did you know how beneficial is garden landscaping?

Are you giving a thought to having garden landscaping? Have a look around your house and figure out how it is oriented to the sun. The majority of the sun's heat will be generated from the south in the winter. During the summer, this shifts, and the southwest generates the greatest heat. It's crucial so you may plant your trees strategically so they cover the bulk of the sun's rays in the summer while obstructing the sun's rays as little as possible in the winter.

 

 

The next step is to decide what sort of tree you want. You'll want a tree that provides deep shade and grows to be at least 60 feet tall, with a spread of at least 25 feet. One thing to remember is that during the warmest part of the summer, the mature tree will cast a shadow as long as the tree is tall at 4 p.m. The optimum place for a shade tree is usually on the southwest or southeast side of the home.

 

Make sure the tree is far enough away from the home that as it matures, animals will not be able to utilise it to get access to your attic. You'll also want to keep an eye out for leaves blocking the gutters. If the mature tree's overall spread is 50 feet, the limbs will spread 25 feet in each direction when the tree has fully grown. You'll need at least 15-20 feet between the house and the tip of a mature tree's branch spread. When it comes to keeping the house cool, bear in mind that air movement is just as vital as shade.

 

When planting such a massive tree, keep in mind that the root system will also grow to be rather large. Make sure the tree is far enough away from any septic lines, drain tiles, or foundations to avoid future problems.
