Texas Trees Used by Builders and Contractors
The Live Oak tree is quite a popular tree grown in Texas and used a lot by builders and contractors for use in new construction sites, sub divisions, and to line highways. The Live Oak is native to the coastal plain and South Central Texas but really can adapt well in any part of the state. It is the Live Oak tree that is most often used for commercial purposes where there are large enough areas to accommodate these trees as they grow to massive proportions. Live Oaks are very durable and resilient and can live for at least 200 years. This tree has especially large deep roots so it easily stands up to storm damage.
There are a few different types of Maple trees that are grown in Texas. The Big tooth Maple is actually native to Texas and offers a moderate amount of shade. This tree grows best in alkaline soils and is good for moist, well-drained limestone soils. It also offers a beautiful assortment of colors in the fall. There is also the Japanese maple tree that adapts well in regions of Texas but this is a smaller tree that grows rather slowly. The only problem with using this type of tree for commercial purposes is that it does require some maintenance to develop to its full beauty and it thrives in well drained soil. There is the Red Maple tree in Texas and this tree grows quite large so it is good filler for commercial purposes. This tree grows very quickly and is ideal for use by builders and contractors alike.
The Crape Myrtle is a very common tree grown in Texas. It is very unique and very beautiful. Unlike other trees the Crape Myrtle has a look all of its own. It is a smaller tree in comparison to the Live Oak and other sprawling trees but it is a very popular choice and can liven up just about any highway or subdivision. The Crape Myrtle is a very fragrant tree that produces spikes of white, purple, and pink flowers. It can tolerate salty soil and spray back from the salt of the sea so it is adaptable just about anywhere.
These are just a few of the trees that work very well in Texas for commercial building purposes. It is the little touches that are added into or around a new subdivision or a new strip of commercial property that give it nice curb appeal. The beauty of a new tree that will stand in that very spot for generations to come is an added extra that truly makes any new construction complete.
