Plant a Tree for Great ROI<\/h2>\n

Carolus Linneaus<\/a>, the founding father of botanical nomenclature, once said, “If a tree dies, plant another in its place.”<\/p>\n

Life is a Shade Better Under a Tree<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Not only do trees provide shade and savings for your home but they also keep your outdoor living space cool.\u00a0 LCN Selections Corinthian\u00ae Littleleaf Linden is a perfect choice for a large shade tree in your yard.<\/p>\n

This streamlined carefree maintenance tree requires little to no work to maintain its perfectly symmetrical shape.\u00a0 Unlike any other Linden, it is Japanese beetle and aerophyte mite resistant!<\/p>\n

Tree City USA<\/a>\u00a0is a national program that promotes and helps small, medium and large size towns create and maintain an urban forestry community.<\/p>\n

Communities must have a tree board or department, have a tree ordinance, spend a minimum of $2 per capita on urban forestry and celebrate Arbor Day.<\/p>\n

There are more than 3400 communities that are Tree City USA certified. There are over 135 million people who enjoy living in a Tree City USA.<\/p>\n
