Evergreen trees provide numerous benefits when strategically planted around your home. Much like trees and their leaves provide shade and relief from the blazing summer sun, evergreen trees protect from harsh winter winds. They can also offer some sound proofing (up to 40%) and can act as an air pollution barrier, depending on the location and conditions.
Early fall is an excellent time to plant evergreen conifers, allowing a minimum of 6 or 8 weeks before the soil starts to freeze.
