Trees and Shrubs

 






In a suburban sized garden, trees should be planted to provide the 'ceiling' of your garden, a focal point and of course, for shade in summer. Shrubs are planted also as focal points, especially brilliantly coloured flowering shrubs and they are also planted as a background to garden beds of flowers and perhaps for privacy screens on boundary fences, often as privacy and sound screens on front fences.
