3 Reasons Your Yard Needs More Trees

October 15, 2015 by Tami Owen

landscapingBelieve it or not, one of the best landscaping ideas around is to add trees to your yard. Though you may think that there are more practical ways to landscape your yard, trees are a great investment for a myriad of different, unique reasons. Don’t believe it? Consider the following!

Trees Can Reduce Stress.
Trees are good for you. Seriously. A study from Texas AandM University found that looking at trees produced “significant recovery from stress” within just five minutes. In other words, your home will become all the more of a relaxing sanctuary if you just plant some beautiful trees. Who wouldn’t want that?

Trees Can Make Your Home More Energy Efficient.
Believe it or not, trees can actually make your home more energy efficient. Planting windbreaks and shade trees can actually reduce winter heating bills by 15% and air conditioning needs by 75%. In fact, it only takes three properly placed trees to annually save between $100 and $250 in energy costs, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

Trees Can Add Value to Your Home.
Adding stonework, building concrete patios, and putting on some fresh siding can all obviously increase a home’s value, but so can planting trees, believe it or not. Research shows that good landscaping can add a whopping 28% to a house’s overall value. In other words, you can add more than a quarter of what your house is worth to its value just by landscaping.

If you want to not only improve your home’s landscaping, but also make your property far more enjoyable, energy efficient, and even increase the value of your home, find landscapers in your area who provide tree services, and have them make your yard more woody.
