Ornamental Shrubs & Trees
At Airport Garden Center, you'll find numerous types of ornamental trees and shrubs for your landscape. Evergreen trees and shrubs retain their color and leaves all year. Deciduous trees and shrubs eventually lose their foliage after typically putting on a colorful Fall show.
Trees and shrubs have many uses within the landscape such as foundation plantings, privacy hedges, and specimen plants. They can be used as backdrops, to define garden beds, and to simply add seasonal interest. Foliage differs from plant to plant, so look for foliage colors that will create a pleasing visual effect and subtle contrast to the other plants within the landscape.
Fall foliage colors can be another factor in selecting a tree or shrub. Fall colors range from yellow, gold, bronze to red and purple. The best time to plant ornamental trees and shrubs is in the Fall or Spring; however, in the Pacific Northwest they can be planted almost any time of year.
