# Plant Your Roots!

 Arbor Homes

Arbor day is the perfect time to reflect on why trees are so important. At Arbor Homes, we take pride in our community designs where we really pay attention to how nature can highlight our neighborhoods. From our included landscaping packages, expansive designated common areas, ponds & walking paths - we capitalize on the beauty of nature.

Did you know?

1. Trees provide shade to patios, sidewalks, and driveways. They cool the concrete, your yard, and your neighborhood! Providing shade keeps your grass greener and your surroundings cooler.
2. By planting trees on the easy, west and northwest sides of your home, you are preventing the hot summer sun with shade and reducing your air conditioning costs by up to 35%!
3. Landscaping with trees can increase your property value as much as 20%. Each tree in your yard could be valued between $1,000 and $10,000!

What are your plans this weekend? Plant a tree!
