Evergreens can add year-round beauty and interest to your landscape, but not all evergreens are created equal. If you have poor soil, you'll need to choose evergreens that are tolerant of these conditions.

Here are a few of the best evergreens for poor soils:

• Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis) is a versatile evergreen that can be grown as a tree or shrub. It is tolerant of a wide range of soil conditions, including poor soil.

When planting evergreens in poor soil, it is important to amend the soil with compost or other organic matter. This will help to improve drainage and fertility. You should also water your evergreens regularly, especially during the first year after planting.

Here are a few tips for choosing and caring for evergreens in poor soil:

• Choose evergreens that are native to your area. Native plants are more likely to be tolerant of the local soil conditions.

With a little care and attention, you can enjoy beautiful evergreens in your landscape, even if you have poor soil.
