Everyone knows that the economic value of good landscaping surpasses many other improvements you can do to your home. Beautiful plantings and outdoor spaces are valuable in more than one way! If you are concerned about rising energy costs, let our designers show you how thoughtful landscape design and plant selections can save you on your heating and cooling costs every season. With water bills rising too, you may want to think about adding rain barrels or 'rain-garden' areas now- use your run-off water on site, reduce your water usage, and help the Bay too! Try some new low-maintenance shrubs for your garden- native Iteas, hypericums, and "landscape" (lowcare) roses are all flowering now. Clethras and Hydrangeas make beautiful additions to your shade garden. Let us select some low care summer perennials and grasses to fill in between. Your water garden plants need thinning now-to shade the water and keep your fish cool, we recommend 75% cover, 25% open in this heat. Watch out for fungal diseases on lawns and plants like dogwoods, photinias and roses- humidity and temperatures are perfect for their development now.
