Large Evergreen Trees (over 20 feet)

Tagged as: Evergreens

These trees can reach heights of 80 feet, and most hold their needles year-round, providing seasonal color in winter. Many are dense, offering a screen or privacy, and windbreak. Besides green, evergreens can be silver-blue, blue-green, and yellow-green. Some have colorful fruits and buds as well. Consider the height and growth rate of these trees before planting. Many of these trees are aromatic, and provide shelter for birds and wildlife.
