ornamental trees
Yard beautification flora
Ornamental trees are trees planted primarily for their aesthetic appeal rather than for fruit, timber, or shade.
They're chosen for features like colorful foliage, striking flowers, or interesting bark: The landscaper recommended several ornamental trees for the front yard.
Common examples include flowering cherries, dogwoods, and Japanese maples.
Most remain relatively small, suited to residential gardens.
