If your outdoor space is looking a little sparse after the non-stop excitement of summer blooms and fall color it's time to think about how best to fill the gaps. Choose easy evergreen trees that will add year-round structure and interest to your yard. They will provide a constant framework when other plants fade, which makes them especially important over winter.
Every garden (or roof garden) should include some evergreen trees as they will really earn their place in your design. Fall is the best time to plant them, as the soil is still warm and this will give the roots time to get established before the weather gets cold. The main thing to remember is that if the weather stays dry you will need to water your new trees regularly to get them off to the best start.
