What kind of tree and plants do you want in your lot in Paradise?

I'm picking this one for the shade

Some rows of these for the alley 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxus_baccata

 

Japanese cherry tree for decorating 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prunus_serrulata

 

That's a good start

A good climbing tree is needed

this is southern live oak

 

[BLEmom]

there’s a bald cypress on a walk I do that is really pretty. Nicer than this one. It’s limbed in a lovely way to provide dappled shade and a nice place for chairs or a hammock underneath.

Oh......the wonders of our Creator.   To think that paradise will be more beautiful than this.  And....this is beautiful.

Some trees leave us with a question mark about how the future will be:

Weeping Willow and Maple

When I build this house , in addition to the palms , I'd like to have  a Deodar Cedar off to the side. They look like tree in the shape of a waterfall to me.. 

 The home and the tree. 

 

Palm trees are nice in front of a home because they dont block the view of the house. But Off to the side somewhere to accentuate. Id like a big ole Healthy Deodar Cedar

Ohh I love Cypress Trees too ! And they can live 1000 years. Not to mention, great rope swing tree. Just sayin

Weeping willow is a great idea 

 

There is a version of the Japanese cherry tree with this "weeping" style. It's called Shidarezakura

[Dages]

I'd add the Fraxinus angustifolia 'Raywood' because I love its small leaves

 

[Dolce vita]

 

Dream : An avenue of African baobabs and Malagasy trees, which allow light to pass through, and near the house a mixture of Lebanese cedars, lime trees and other fragrant flowering trees to provide shade and fragrance in summer. Weeping willows will frame a pond and an olive grove will serve as an area of joy and laughter at harvest time.

The whole world will be represented in my property so that all the friends of the world will feel at home when they come to my house. For David @Datesand his family I will create a little Japanese corner, I promise, with beautiful cherry trees.

Hooo, that's good

"I would plant a tree that is described in the book *The Little Prince*, called the Baobab. Its trunk can reach 11 meters in diameter, and it reaches maturity at 200 years old. Ah, it's a pity that in the time scales of the new world, it doesn't live long... Just a thousand years 🤣🤣🤣"

Very, very beautiful trees.
