Having a tree or multiple trees in the garden is not only beneficial to you but to the environment. If you are considering planting a tree in your back garden, there are lots of different types to choose from and you don’t necessarily need to have a large garden to be able to have a tree in it.
You can also decide whether you want to plant a younger smaller tree, or you would prefer a tree that was larger from somewhere like this www.naturefirst.co.uk/semi-mature-trees that has semi mature trees for sale
Here are some of the reasons it is a great idea to add a tree to your garden…
Privacy and Security – Having a tree in the garden helps to give you a bit more privacy so that you can enjoy the garden without being overlooked. Trees that have sharp thorns such as blackthorn are a great choice for adding extra security to your garden and planting them around the edges will deter trespassers.
Benefits for Wildlife – As well as being a source of food for many creatures, trees also provide a home to animals and shelter over the winter months. If you want to attract nature to your garden, one of the best ways to do it is to plant a tree.
Shelter and Shade – If you are out in the garden and want some respite from the sun on a warm day, or you want somewhere to sit that is sheltered from the wind, a tree can provide you with this. Because the roots take in water it can also help to reduce your flood risk.
