This year's spring planting began on May 1st, though, it looked a little bit different than in past years due to the pandemic. For this reason, we wanted to do something positive and uplifting for our local healthcare workers. Together, iTrees.com and Spring Grove Nursery rallied together to accept nominations for our Planting Peace - Growing Hope project. This was a way for us to give back to our local community and our healthcare heroes. The recipients each had a tree planted in their honor.
We plant trees near where others were removed pretty often. At this particular home, we came in, in early spring and replaced a few trees on the parkway and in the landscape bed.
Around the end of May, near Memorial Day we planted a Rivers Purple Beech tree— a beautiful, and unique tree selection for a memorial tree. This tree was planted in downtown Morris, IL in remembrance of John Enger.
Arborvitae is an ideal option for this home's backyard pool oasis. These trees not only add much-needed privacy & screening, but they also bring in the beauty of soft evergreen foliage, color, and texture. This home's end of spring tree planting rolled them right into a rocking summer!
This year's spring wouldn't be complete without tree planting in this lush Chicago backyard oasis. It filled in wonderfully with the shade, texture, and color of our beautiful trees.
...and that's a wrap!
