Are you investing in evergreens and capitalizing on your catalpa? Plants, shrubs, trees, and even flowers are more than just beautiful additions to your home. They can add resale value and cut your utility bills as well. Because people everywhere are becoming more appreciative of bushes, blossoms, and greenery, they're willing to pay more for a home that has them. A thick, weed- free lawn,alone can add up to $1,500 to the price of your homes. If you plant your trees and shrubs in the rightplaces, you can cut noise, ' increase privacy and lower your fuel bills. Large trees will provide added privacy between you and your neighbors without shutting out friendliness. In addition, the right trees will also block out street noise. Shade trees on the south side of yoiir home can save air conditioning costs on hot summer days by reducing your home's inside tem­ perature as much as 10 degrees. On A winter days, evergreens act as a windbreak and ivy will also help insulate your home from cold winds. While most home owners over the years will gradually add trees and flowers, a new home generally needs grass and foundations plan­ tings right away. Budget con­ siderations will help you decide whether your yard should be seeded or sodded. Either way/tie best time to do it la in the spring or fall. Foundation plantings, par­ ticularly evergreens, adorn the area between the foundation of your house and where your lawn begins. In the inowbelt, evergreens are an important and popular landscaping element in foundation plantings. They are usually the best choice because they provide color all year round. Planting a few different colored shrubs offers variety, however, especially If they bloom throughout the season. But if you decide to plant evergreens, be sure to allow plenty of growing room. Otherwise, you may find the trees crowding doorways or darkening windows once they mature. Ornamental trees and flowers are another important element of a landscape plan. Be careful with fruit trees; they could become a nuisance if they shed their fruit on the lawn or driveway. Flowers should be |r selected for their blooming schedule as much as for their fragrance and decorative appeal.
