Evergreen Planting Creates Year-Round Beauty

Adding evergreens to your landscape offers numerous benefits across all seasons. Knowing the right time and method for planting these lasting additions to your garden ensures their health and visual impact for years to come.

Common reasons to consider evergreen planting:

• Creates privacy screens and natural boundaries
• Provides windbreaks to reduce heating costs
• Adds winter interest when other plants are dormant
• Reduces noise from busy streets
• Establishes permanent structure in your landscape
• Creates habitat for birds and wildlife
• Helps prevent soil erosion on slopes
• Increases property value with mature plants

The best times to plant evergreens in Minnesota are early spring and early fall when temperatures are mild and rainfall is usually plentiful. This timing helps root systems get established before extreme weather arrives. Remember to space your plants properly, as many evergreens will grow much larger over time.
