landscape for you.
When the plants go
through their dormant stages in winter, it is a great idea to have a
landscape design that has implemented some hardscaping. Eyes will be
drawn less to the dormant trees and shrubbery and more to the
beautiful hardscaping design on your property. There are so many
things that you can do to enjoy your lawn and garden, even while they
are covered by snow and ice.
The key to landscape
design in winter is how well it was installed. A winter surviving
landscape design will need a good solid base and options for
drainage. Snow and ice accumulate, mass, ultimately melting. The melt
should not pool or sit on the surface of your hardscaping only to
refreeze. A landscape design installed via hardscaping professionals
should be set up adequately to allow for this.
Do you currently not
have the hardscaping or landscape design you desire to enhance your
property during the winter months? Hardscaping is a great place to
start. The professionals in landscape design here at Advanced
Irrigation can install hardscaping items like retaining walls,
outdoor fire pits, pergolas, lighting and more. But the key to their
aesthetic appeal in wintertime is maintenance. It is important to
keep them clear of snow and ice so that they can be a focal point
throughout the non growing season.
It is never to early
to start planning and enhancing your landscaping! Start gathering
inspiration and ideas for what you’d like your landscape design to
incorporate and contact the professionals at Advanced Irrigation
right away! We would love to talk about what you’re looking for in
your landscape, how we can help you maintain your current one this
winter (including snow and ice removal) and make a plan of action for
spring.
