DO IT NOW
A Feature on Gardening by the
Kings Mountain Council of Oar
den Clubs
"I think that I shall never see
a poem lovely as a tree.” We do
not have anything In our yards
and gardens we enjoy more in
the spring and summer than
trees. They are of major impor
tance in landscaping, and you
must select and choose your
trees with care. Their sites must
be carefully selected also. Here
are a few points that will help
you. If the tree is to be used near
the house or terrace for shade
purposes, select one that is free
from pests so spraying is no
problem. The tree must be strong
structurally to avoid breakage in
storms; it should, where possi
ble, have ornamental value too.
But above all keep the size with
in the scale of the property. This
rules out, for the medium to
small property, such as weeping
willow, sugar maple, the heavy
oaks, plane tree and the native
sycamore. Silver maple, poplar,
Willow, and similar trees are also
unwise choices because they are
too brittle and because their
roots seek out and fill drain and
water pipes.
* or shade purposes the tree is
placed with regard to the path of
the sun. If only one tree can be
used its exact placement is de
termined by the particular time
of the day shade is needed. In
the morning the sun is southeast.
At noon it is directly overhead so
there is no shadow except di
rectly under the tree. To shade
the roof, the tree would be plac
ed near the house. But as the sun
drops toward the west in the af
ternoon it will shine under, the
tree and onto the windows or ter
race. Most use is secured from
one tree in the afternoon by set
ting it at a point between south
and west of the house or terrace
and at a distance related to the
spread of the gree of its height.
A tree some 40 feet tall (and this
is suitable for most places) will
have an approximate spread of
30 feet, with some 15 feet either
side of the trunk. To get maxi
mum coverage the tree is set
about 20 feet from the house, or
terrace. At the southwest point
it will catch the early afternoon
sun and provide shade for most
of the afternoon. Where two
trees can be used the shade can
be distributed over a greater ar
ea.
Scarlet, red or swamp maple
is one of the better maples. Ex
tremely ornamental in spring and
fall, it has a lighter effect than
the sugar or Norway maples. The
white or greybarked variety is
the most ornamental. Sweet gum,
which develops into a tall tree,
and pin oak are two excellent
subjects. The Chinese elm, green
ash, black walnut, and most all
varieties of the flowering fruits,
and weeping peach and cherries
are very lovely, and most suitable
for a small area.
