That being said, there are a ton of different types of trees to choose from. We recommend [planting a conifer tree](http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/44085997?utm_source=Houzz&utm_campaign=u1044&utm_medium=email&utm_content=gallery17) or two.

Conifers come in all shapes and sizes, which means it’s not difficult to find a few types of conifers that are suitable for the specific needs of your landscape. Conical conifers, such as the Norway spruce or Colorado blue spruce, emit feelings of discovery and exploration and can be used to create a focal point or to bring height to an area full of low-growing shrubs. Columnar conifers, such as Alaskan cedars, take up little square footage, making them perfect for smaller gardens and can help add emphasis to certain architectural details. Round conifers, such as the Globe spruce, are shorter and provide a rich texture and contrast to the rest of the garden.
