4 Steps to a Drought-Resistant Landscape

Posted on September 3, 2015October 6, 2015 By admin

Hot and dry summers have a way of wearing out your landscape whether big or small. Yet there are ways to work around if you’re willing to give it a bit of thought.

For starters, you have to replace grass along with more drought-tolerant varieties. To do this, here are 4 steps that should help you decide what is best for your landscape.

homegardenadvices1: Create a Plan

The first thing you should ask yourself is how your landscape really is. When it comes to the types of plants available – greenery, shrubs, flowers, vegetables and trees – which of these is most important to you. Also, ask yourself how you can best integrate these elements in the space that you have.

2: Decide your time, energy and commitment issues

Since maintenance of your garden requires time, energy and commitment, ask yourself how you can perform tasks such as trimming, mowing, watering, weeding, and feeding. Ensure that you do this for not only during the growing season but also during summer too.

3: Plan how to save as much water as possible

The focus should be on reducing the amount of water your landscape requires. This will only happen when you pick groundcovers that are not only drought-tolerant but also native to the area in which you live. This will not only build interest and resilience in your garden but also reduce the amount of consumption. Best part: your well or pump won’t be used excessively nor will you have to spend excess time in weeding, watering and mowing either.

4: Consider neighborhood issues

Finally, also ask yourself if the homeowner’s association has any restrictions with this type of landscape. If this is so, think about the alternatives that are available too.
