Shawnee perfectly blends historic charm with growing neighborhoods, all surrounded by mature trees and lush green spaces. From the oaks and maples that line Monticello’s streets to ornamental plantings in newer developments, the city’s tree canopy adds beauty, comfort, and value. Caring for these trees is more than aesthetics, it’s about safety and long-term health.
