Evergreen trees have a useful place in the landscape, whether it’s as a specimen, groupings, hedge or windbreak. In the Midwest, where winter can last what seems like 6 months, evergreens are important! They provide color, cover for wildlife and natural wind and snow fences. There isn’t anything quite as beautiful as an evergreen covered in snow near the holidays. Below are a few options:
Canadian Hemlock
Western Red Cedar
Taylor Junipers
Emerald Green Arborvitae
Pyramidal Arborvitae
