Why Proper Drainage is Important When Landscaping

When it comes to any new landscaping project, most people tend to focus on things like deciding what type of trees, bushes and flowers to plant and choosing the color and style of stone for their beautiful new garden paths. This obviously makes sense as these various factors are what determine how the finished landscaping will look.

The Importance of Transplanting During the Right Season

Planting bushes, trees and perennials is a fantastic way to improve the look of your yard and also potentially improve the value of your property. The best part about all of these plants is that they provide a range of benefits you can enjoy year after year, that is, as long as you take the time to ensure they are transplanted properly. Otherwise, you might as well just take the money you plan on spending on those trees or other plants and throw it into the trash since there’s a high chance the plants won’t survive the year. In this sense, by far the most important thing you can do is to ensure you are transplanting during the right time of the year in order to give the plants the best chance of survival.
