Landscaping tips

- Trees that lose their leaves in the fall (i.e., deciduous) are the most
effective at reducing heating and cooling energy costs. When selectively placed
around a house, they provide excellent protection from the summer sun but
permit winter sunlight to reach and warm your house. The height, growth rate,
branch spread, and shape are all factors to consider in choosing a tree.
- Vines provide shading and cooling. Grown on trellises, vines can shade windows
or the whole side of a house.
- Deflect winter winds by planting evergreen trees and shrubs on the north and
west sides of your house; deflect summer winds by planting on the south and
west sides of your house.
