Tree Faces Add Surprise And Delight To Your Landscape

Written by Randy on August 20, 2006 | Comments (1)

Have you ever seen tree faces before? I'm sure most people have seen those humorous looking clay (or some other material) faces nailed to trees. They've caught on and you can find them in just about any gardening shop, as well as many other types of department stores and, of course, on-line.

If you want to add a little character to your landscaping, this is one way to do it. The life-like facial expressions that I've seen on some of them is pretty amazing.

It's hard not to smile when you see them.

Where In The World Is A Good Place To Put Your Tree Face

Placement of the tree face is crucial to receive maximum enjoyment from them. I would suggest a prominent (healthy) tree towards the front of your property to greet your guests. Placing some tree faces where they can be seen from your windows is also a great place to enjoy them. Have some fun with it and create a group of forest faces so they can talk amongst themselves when you're not around...or do they really make a sound if there isn't anyone around to hear them??? Who knows???!!!

Only the trees know the truth...and THEY'RE..NOT..TALKING!!!
