A tree is a long-living plant with a sturdy trunk, branches, and leaves, offering oxygen, shade, and shelter.
Working trees are planted for a specific, practical purpose. These evergreens have a job to do, whether it is for a screen, hedge, windbreak, sound barrier, snow fence, boundary line, or wildlife habitat. The redcedar will grow fast; hemlock and Norway spruce at a medium rate. These trees were selected for their fast growth rates.
