This article is very helpful to insure that what trees should we use in our garden. It helps to make a garden beautiful. It helps to choose trees and shrubs so that some flower in early grew up. I like vary much The Sargent Cherry which really grew up early. Thank you very much for such a beautiful post.

I managed to get around and plant a few Deutzia’s around the front yard of the house, we do have a small flower garden there – it ended up being a very nice combination and we are happy with it!

Thanks for the mention of the Serbian Spruce. I had forgotten about that one. Although not terribly narrow, it is definitely not as wide as many other evergreen trees.

Two other trees to consider are Cryptomeria japonica…a lovely evergeen tree that only get 12 to 18 feet wide. Also White Birch or River Birch are deciduous trees that I use frequently. Although they can get wider at the top, the branching at lower levels is narrow.
