What is Tree ?

Trees provide visual interest within a landscape in terms of their species, height, leaf & bark colour & patterns, their shape & their sense of movement

Trees are considered ‘green infrastructure’ rather than the ‘grey infrastructure’ of development such as pipes, buildings & roads

Green Infrastructure is assessed in economic terms, meaning public trees are worth money & often in significant amounts which may surprise us

Urban Planning experts believe that planting of appropriate street trees is the most effective expenditure of funds to improve an area because street trees transform a street into something beautiful

When assessing what makes a good street most people rate highly the presence of good looking & tall street trees

Street trees bring a sense of order & beauty to a street as they draw the eye away from any differences and disarray in the buildings & bring a unifying element
