Native Trees and their Benefits

  • California Sycamore (Platanus racemosa): This iconic tree thrives in La Cañada’s dry climate and provides valuable shade and habitat for wildlife. Its deep root system helps stabilize soil and prevent erosion.
  • Coast Live Oak (Quercus agrifolia): A keystone species in our local ecosystem, the Coast Live Oak supports a wide range of insects, birds, and mammals. Its acorns provide a vital food source for wildlife.
  • Western Redbud (Cercis occidentalis): This beautiful deciduous tree adds a splash of color to the landscape with its vibrant pink blossoms in spring. It’s also a valuable pollinator plant, attracting bees and butterflies.
  • California Buckeye (Aesculus californica): This unique tree is well-adapted to our dry summers and provides habitat for various bird species. Its distinctive flowers are a beautiful sight in spring.

These are just a few examples of the remarkable trees that call La Cañada home. Understanding their individual needs and characteristics is essential for providing proper care and ensuring their long-term health.
