Landscape Ready Trees Alabama Plant Nurseries Offer Have Great Practical And Aesthetic Value

By Larry Brown


It is not unusual for developers to bulldoze properties before they start building. It's easier than trying to work around existing vegetation. New homeowners are left with the decision of how to improve the appearance of their yards however. If they decide to buy seeds, it's inexpensive and they can do the job themselves. The landscape ready trees Alabama plant nurseries sell cost more, but they will quickly provide benefits seeds will take years to offer.

The minute your yard is fully landscaped your overall property value will raise at least ten percent. The more mature your foliage gets the more it increases the value of your property. Not only will you benefit from lush vegetation, your whole neighborhood will be more interesting to potential home buyers, and less interesting to burglars. Studies have shown that tree lined neighborhoods have less incidence of violence.

Environmentalists probably already know about the benefits of having a tree filled property. Plants clean the air, and emit vital oxygen. Just one wooded acre absorbs as much CO2, carbon dioxide, as your gas powered vehicle would emit if you drove from coast to coast more than a dozen times.

Terraced lots can be challenging for homeowners. If they are left bare, soil will slide down the hill every time it rains. If you live in a wet climate, it will stay a muddy mess unless you plant mature vegetation to keep the soil in place. You won't even have to worry about watering much if you have planted mature hardwoods that provide plenty of shade.

Homeowners, interested in growing as much of their own food as possible, will have all the fruit and nuts they can eat if they plant an orchard. Even one tree can keep a family in apples, cherries, pears, or peaches for the whole year. If you have some acreage, you might consider planting an orchard and selling the fruits and nuts it produces at a roadside stand or the farmer's market.

Homeowners aren't the only property owners who benefit from mature tree lined streets. Downtown areas get more businesses into their central district, and those businesses see more customers, when the area is landscaped. People are more likely to park and stroll around the square instead to drive quickly through the stop lights. Landscaping is a good way to hide unsightly areas, like block walls, that detract from the overall look of a street scene.

It's just a fact that trees make people feel good. Studies show that patients heal faster when they can see landscaping outside their hospital windows. They also tend to have fewer setbacks and complications. Trees are good for kids with learning disabilities and attention deficit disorders. Access to nature has a calming influence.

It is hard to overstate how important natural surroundings are to an individual's sense of well being. You might have a lot of fun planting a young sapling and watching it grow. It might be even more satisfying to plant mature landscaping that has immediate practical applications along with great beauty.
