Medford's Tree of the Week

Do you know the City of Medford really, really likes its trees?

And it should. There is some beautiful greenery in the area. One tree was singled out on the city website as this week's Tree of the Week.

The Norway spruce in front of City Hall is this week's honoree. The Norway spruce, pictured above, is an evergreen.

Here's an excerpt from Medford Tree Warden Aggie Tuden (for the full entry, visit the website):

The Norway spruce at City Hall was planted about 18 years ago. In that short time, it has grown to become a big and healthy tree and a delightful focal point, especially with a dusting of snow or with the Christmas lights illuminated. With City Hall undergoing repairs and improvements, both the historic building itself and the landscape are looking handsomely “spruced up”.
