🌿 Kentucky Coffee Tree

Stark and rugged in the winter, the Kentucky Coffee Tree’s picturesque native Midwest look becomes tropical in appearance in the summer. Kentucky Coffee Tree features huge fans of doubly compound green leaves, which emerge to cast filtered shade.

Today was a good day for planting trees. We had a little help from our friends at which made it all that more fun 😃🌲!

This Memorial Day, as we fire up our grills and set out lawn chairs, we are reminded of why we get to have such freedoms. It's because of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Did you know that trees play a significant role in paying tribute to those who have since passed on? Legacy trees subtly remind us of cherished memories and a life well lived.

Why Does Tree Diversity Matter?

At iTrees.com, we’re passionate about enhancing urban canopies in Chicagoland! Did you know that biodiversity is crucial for a healthy ecosystem? It's all about planting a variety of trees to protect against pests and diseases.

Imagine a neighborhood filled with just one kind of tree. If disease strikes, it could wipe out the entire canopy 🌲😱 ! Instead, let’s celebrate diversity! To put it into perspective, a single oak tree, for example, can host over 500 wildlife species!

Here’s how you can help:
✅ Plant only 10-15% of the same species in your yard
✅ Consider your neighborhood's existing trees
✅ Think about each season, ensuring year-round beauty

Join us in growing a vibrant and resilient tree canopy!
