Invest in the right resources for efficient landscaping and you’ll have a lot to smile about! Attractive landscapes play a significant role in increasing property values. Landscapes that are poorly managed can increase maintenance costs, waste natural resources, and pollute the environment.
Adopt efficient landscaping practices that can improve the health and appearance of your landscape while protecting and preserving natural resources.
- Use compost to keep your plants and soil healthy. Composting helps to keep the high volume of organic material such as leaves, twigs, grass clippings, and vegetable food scraps out of landfills and turns it into a product useful for soil restoration.
- Use Integrated Pest Management which encourages healthier, disease-resistant plants and reduces the amount of pesticides, fertilizers, and other toxic runoff entering storm drains, polluting creeks, lakes, and rivers.
- Reduce the use of water by adopting water efficient practices like drip irrigation.
- Re-use materials found on site like used bricks, broken concrete, used lumber, boulders and rocks. These can be incorporated into the landscape to give a beautiful natural effect.
- Choose plants that need less water, have few pests, and thrive in the local climate.
