Ornamental trees for the garden are represented by various tree species that have extremely high aesthetic value. In the modern world, no garden architecture can do without them. Both trees and shrubs can be divided into the following species: deciduous, evergreen deciduous, coniferous and curly. All of them can be either a stand-alone plant or a composition and are the source material for any landscape designer.
Evergreen decorative trees: photos and features
One of the most important features of evergreen hardwood and conifers is the invariability of their appearance throughout the year. That is why such a decorative tree is most often used to hide corners not intended for prying eyes, or to create a romantic nook. From plants that need to be trimmed, you can form figures and walls, and sometimes even create a whole evergreen maze.
Most often, such breeds create a very serious mood in a person, and their imaginary immobility gives a sense of peace. That is why it is customary to plant them where it is necessary to create a certain strict environment.
Coniferous decorative tree and its use in the garden
Some species of conifers can be planted both in groups or individually to create color and light contrasts. Plants of this species are extremely suitable for creating rock gardens. With their help, you can create the effect of a natural hedge.
Coniferous decorative wood is characterized by the regular and often symmetrical shape of the crown. That is why they are so well suited for planting in the vicinity of buildings. There is not even the slightest danger that the tree will begin to grow in the unnecessary direction and damage the building. Such a tree is very often planted next to asymmetric rocks to obtain the necessary geometric contrast.
Evergreen deciduous decorative tree
This breed of plants is widely used in gardens. Caring for them is much more difficult than for ordinary trees, changing their foliage during the year. They all look very expressive, so it is recommended to plant them either in a group or singly. It is not necessary to combine with ordinary plants. If you still have to deal with plant groups, it is best to combine them with evergreen conifers. You can create a corner in the garden, where it will always be green and calm. If you drop them around a small gazebo, you can create a place for quiet family gatherings and thoughts.
Climbing rocks
Usually this group of plants is used to fill the gaps between the trees or to close the walls. With their help, you can perfectly fit the architectural features of the structure into the landscape. Most often, the rocks of these plants are planted next to trellises or specially laid rope structures. When the plant covers them, you can get a very beautiful hedge or a whole maze of different plants and trees.
