Trees and shrubs are the basis of a plant arrangement of a garden and affect its appearance for many years. Now, in the fall, many species are decorated with colorful fruit and leaves, replacing the fading beauty of bedding plants.When the autumn winds tear the last leaf off the branches, there are still specimens whose bare shoots will decorate the garden in winter.Trees and shrubs are among the longest-lived plants, so it is worth taking some time to select and appropriate them arrangement in the garden.
A shrub with many values is the most suitable for a demonstration. The palm maple has a beautiful habit and intricately cut leaves that change color wonderfully in autumn, while in winter it delights with its bare shoots.Flower dogwood in spring is covered with large flowers.In summer, fruit appears on its shoots, and in autumn, its leaves turn bright.Different species of viburnum, as well as ornamental cherries and apple trees have a lot to show.
Trees and shrubs can be used to create a tranquil background for other garden plants. A single species group looks particularly mild, e.g. consisting of a few or a dozen rhododendrons. On the other hand, a more vivid impression is caused by a mosaic of colors, forms, habit and shapes of leaves.Attractive green and white varieties of dogwood or red-leaved palm maple trees are noticeable.As a rule, such specimens in a green environment come to the fore.
Among the low trees with beautiful autumn colors, we can find a spherical variety of ambergris 'Gum Ball', blood-red Sargent's cherry or less known parotia.We can use pairs of trees or shrubs in a unique way. They can decorate and indicate the entrance to the front garden or house, or on both sides cover a bench at the edge of the garden.
In the garden in front of the house, it is worth planting decorative, spherical varieties of trees, such as the common maple "Globosum", which is distinguished by a characteristic silhouette and certainly will not grow high up to the sky. Trees with a round crown are also perfect for protecting a sitting corner from the sun's rays.A very effective, shading lane can be created by carefully trimmed plane trees.
