Shade
Evergreen shade trees will provide shade year round because they retain their leaves
and hence offer the best and most reliable protection from the sun. Other trees maybe classified as shade providers
even though they shed their leaves, being deciduous. A deciduous tree provides distinct advantages in a climate
that has notable seasonable changes. It maybe desirable to have good shade cover in the hotter months, but when the
weather changes to cold and the trees lose their leaves, they then open up the skies and allow warmth where there
would otherwise be a chill, as in the case of an evergreen blocking the sky and warming rays of the sun.

impact on other plants growing nearby or alter change the way you use the land around them. You may enjoy the shade
from a tree, but  smaller plants maybe intolerant to that shade and you may not be able to continue
growing some of your summer favorites.
