Plant - Commercial applications Local Authority Consider the benefits and added value of planting large trees in your community. Large trees have immediate impact - their size and scale means they fit in with the surrounding landscape. An area can be enhanced overnight by adding a mature landscape to mature buildings. Their size makes them less prone to vandalism as they are harder to damage. By growing for longer in nursery conditions, less management and pruning is required after planting to develop a strong, well shaped specimen. Large tree planting makes a statement about the intentions of the funding body – "We want tree cover in this location and we are prepared to pay for it." It creates instant shaded areas in public open spaces or school grounds. Civic Trees offers a complete supply and plant service for semi-mature trees followed by on-going maintenance and aftercare service, coupled with guarantees and warranties to ensure successful re-establishment.
