Illinois Trees If you’re an Illinois resident who’s looking for fast growing shade trees, colorful shrubs, evergreens or vibrant fruit trees to enhance the natural beauty of your residential landscape, you’ve come to the right place. Here at Fast Growing Trees Nursery we can help you select the right trees and shrubs for you climate, soil type and light levels. The Prairie State enjoys a relatively temperate climate. Summers are hot and wet, while winters are cold and snowy. The sharply defined seasons mean a big difference in temperature with average temperatures in the colder months reaching 22 degrees Fahrenheit in the north and 37 degrees in the south. During the summer, northern temperatures will reach 70 degrees in the north with an increase of 10-15 degrees in the south. If you want the best from your trees and plants, we suggest that you bear in mind the temperatures, rainfall and light and soil conditions of your region when choosing them. The Best Trees for Planting in Illinois Shade trees are a must for the Illinois Summer whether you live in the central Plains, the Shawnee Hills or the Gulf Coastal Region. We recommend the Hybrid Poplar, which is one of the most attractive and fast growing trees around or the American Beech which provide dense shade.
