Beautiful Spring Flowering Trees In Kentucky

In Kentucky, spring is a great time to plant a new tree, but choosing the right tree is essential.  Adding a tree to your lawn can be very beneficial and has a major effect on the overall look of your property. Evergreen trees can help with privacy and shield against the wind, fast-growing shade trees to help keep you cool in the summer, and fruit trees that provide tasty treats throughout the year. However, one of the best types of trees to plant to enhance your home’s curb appeal is a flowering tree.

 Crabapple trees are some of the most widely known flowering trees in Kentucky and are a great addition to the front of your home. The flowers on Crabapple trees are gorgeous, typically coming in pink, red or white.  These trees also have a great shape and are easier to maintain.  The flowers eventually develop into small hanging berries.

 Another popular, well known flowering tree is the dogwood tree. These beautiful trees come in many different shapes and sizes making it easier to find a tree that will fit your landscape. In the spring, these lovely trees bloom with colorful, fragrant flowers.  When choosing the best flowering trees in Kentucky to add to your property, you really can’t go wrong with a dogwood tree.

 Another tree worth mentioning is the Magnolia tree, with over 100 different types of magnolia trees there is certainly a magnolia that will work for everyone.  Magnolia flowers come in many different colors, including red, pink, white, and yellow. When choosing which flowering tree to plant in your Kentucky lawn, you can’t go wrong with a magnolia.

 Kentucky’s very own state tree, the tulip poplar, is a stunning addition to any lawn.    In May and early June, the tulip poplar bursts into bloom with green and orange tulip-shaped flowers.  However, Tulip poplars can grow very tall, so it’s important to avoid planting it under power lines or too close to the house.

 Another popular tree in Kentucky, for good reason, is the Eastern Redbud.  The Eastern Redbud flowers are pink or purple in color and they bloom in March or April.  The Eastern Redbud tree is sure to add a burst of color to your lawn and landscape.
