Have you ever wondered whether you ought to be doing your landscape planting for your bushes, perennials, turf as well as other plants in the spring or the falltime? Most people don't even think about it. In fact, the most common thing we hear from our customers when they are considering planting is "we are going to just hold off until spring season to plant.
The fact of the matter is that fall is the very best time to lay your grass and do all your landscape. And the drought that we have confronted this year has proven that.
2012 proved to be very severe for landscaping overall. Some are calling 2012 "Landscaping Apocalypse." We witnessed landscaping clientele who had been really dedicated to watering their landscape and doing the required steps to help keep every thing alive lose a lot of the plants. Unfortunately, the harsh summer of 2012 ended up getting rid of a lot of landscape for even the extremely devoted house owners.
It was the spring planted landscaping that was taking the hardest hit. An interesting thing is that there were not any kind of difficulties with those who planted during the fall time of 2011. Would you like to know why? .
Planting in the falltime allows all your landscaping to build up a powerful root system. If you want your landscaping to flourish and live, a deep root system is essential. If your landscaping has a shallow root system it will likely be striving in the high temperature to get the water it requires to endure.
Now, the 2012 drought we experienced had been a one off heat spell. Planting in spring doesn't mean your landscaping will perish though. A good year can do wonders for spring planted landscapes. This apocilyptic level of high temperature we all have experienced this year has shown that planting your landscape during the falltime will produce strong plants.
Imagine how well your fall planted landscape is going to do if we do have an excellent year in 2013. If you'd like a smaller amount servicing and watering, ensuring that the plants have deep root systems permits the water in the deep soil to do a large amount of work for you.
It's simply not the case that putting together your landscaping in the springtime is the ideal time to do your landscaping. And it's always a big plus to not be required to water the yard and perform landscaping upkeep as much as you'll have to with spring season landscape planting.
No matter if you choose to perform all the work by yourself or perhaps have us out to complete all of the landscaping and planting work, hopefully you found this information handy. Despite the fact that our main service locations are generally KCMO, Lenexa KS, Overland Park KS, Leawood KS and Olathe landscaping, we would be delighted to work in any bordering locations.
