<\/a><\/p>\nThe Sweetgum offers a pretty good shade, nice autumn leaves, and even food for a few animals during the winter. However, this tree has large surface roots that can ruin your lawn and if close enough to your home, damage your foundation. Along with this, the spin fruits fall to the ground and can be very painful if you step on them barefoot and they are quite hard to collect.<\/p>\n

2. Mulberry<\/h3>\n
\u00a0 The Mulberry tree is pretty and has a nice shape that can enhance a dull area in your yard with lots of shade, but grass will never grow beneath its limbs. On the other hand, it produces quite a bit of pollen and when the berries fall to ground makes a huge mess. It is also the only food source for silkworms.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Lombardy Poplar can provide great privacy as well as protect your home from wind. The tree only lives around twenty years and branches die quickly and will need to be trimmed. The male trees are also good at producing pollen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 Hybrid Poplars are two more popular trees that have cross-pollinated. You will have a fast growing tree that is nice to the eye, but they are prone to disease and usually die in 15 years.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Sycamore is a very large tree and is often seen lining roadways and may often dominant the entire landscape. During droughts the sycamore can have cankers form on the trunk.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Norway Maple is a moisture hog drawing moisture from the ground so not much else can grow in the area. The heavy shade it produces will not allow grass to grow beneath its limbs and the roots system often girdles and kills the tree.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Mimosa is a very beautiful tree; however, it has a short life span. The branches are very weak which tend to break often, along with webworms and vascular wilt, you may wish to avoid this tree altogether. On a good note, it can usually live even during a drought.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Bradford pear tree has a stately pyramidal shape but due to the way in which the branches grow, high winds, ice and snow are not its friend. Branches cannot take the weight or the winds and the limbs will begin to split. The flowery blooms are not pleasant to the nose either.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Black Walnut is known for its yummy nut and of course the furniture made from its wood. On the other hand, the tree itself creates a toxin that often kills other plants you may have planted in your yard. The walnuts fall off the tree in a hard shell and can make a huge mess that you will have to clean up. If you want to enjoy the nuts inside, you will need a hammer and special small tools to remove the nuts. May not be worth the hassles.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Leyland Cypress goes fast and needs frequent trimming as it grows 2 to 3 feet each year. This tree needs moisture and drought can cause damage. Bagworms also love to call this tree home.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Cottonwood is a very beautiful tree, however it is a weak tree with shallow roots and brittle wood making harsh weather ones it enemies. The tree is also known to be susceptible to disease, insects, bacteria, and fungi. Those with allergies may not like the springtime when the pollen is floating in the air from the tree, which looks just like small cotton balls.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Silver maple grows fast, creates nice shade and is beautiful in autumn. The problem is it grows so quickly that the wood is brittle and limbs can be broken during high winds and storms. It has a shallow root system that damage sidewalks, sewage pipes, and drain pipes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Ash may be a tough tree; however, the emerald ash borer, which is a small beetle, can destroy the tree in a very short amount of time.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Quaking Aspen is a very beautiful tree with white bark. The root system on the other hand is a nightmare as it sends up several suckers all along the way trying to grow new trees.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Weeping Willow is a majestic tree as you stare at it, however, just beneath the ground she is one water hogging root system. The root system will attach irrigation pipes, drainpipes, and more just to get a drink.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Eucalyptus is a fast growing tree that can grow up to ten feet in year; however, it is known for having weak branches that will drop off without notice and it also sheds it bark each year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Mountain Cedar is beautiful tree but for those with allergies, steer clear in the cooler months when it releases its pollen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 The Magnolia Tree is very beautiful and sturdy tree however, if you are not of bees, then this is not the tree for you in the spring. The flowers bloom in the early spring and thousands of bees will come to enjoy the nectar all at once.<\/p>\n Credits: House Logic<\/a> and Landscaping Lawns Ponds<\/a><\/p>\n Photo Credits: www.heirloomseedswap.com<\/a>, tcpermaculture.blogspot.com<\/a>, http:\/\/www.plantsinthemail.com<\/a>, www.hybridpoplars.com<\/a>, www.meridian.k12.il.us<\/a>, http:\/\/www.eddmaps.org<\/a>, alwaysonwatch2.blogspot.com<\/a>, http:\/\/www.denvertreepictures.com<\/a>, www.theequinest.com<\/a>, www.tree-land.com<\/a>, http:\/\/www.treenames.net<\/a>, www.thetreefarm.com<\/a>, www.bioquicknews.com<\/a>, www.mikebartonphoto.com<\/a>, en.wikipedia.org<\/a>, filesite.org<\/a>, and davesgarden.com<\/a><\/p>\n If you want to help your friends with their landscaping ideas, just click share.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We all want our lawns and yards to be pleasing to the eye; therefore, we plant all kinds of shrubs, flowers, and trees.
