Should you plant when it’s cool? Sunny? Hot? Rainy? In April? August? December?
When you’re planting in Central Florida, you could pick any of the above.
Sure, sod is still king of the yard in Central Florida, but it doesn’t have to rule your outdoor kingdom.
Perhaps you’re tired of mowing, have a lot of shade, or want to be kinder to the environment.
Landscape maintenance is a year-round thing here in Central Florida, with shrubs that need trimming, plants that need replacing, and palm fronds that take a tumble pretty much anytime.
So, is spring landscaping cleanup in Orlando even a thing?
If you live in Florida, you are familiar with sand. It’s between your toes at the beach, likely under your lawn, and in most photos that anyone posts to Instagram from here.
But when it comes to the sand between your patio or driveway pavers, sand can go beyond natural sand to another manufactured product you might consider.
It’s called polymeric sand and creates a harder, more solid surface between your pavers.
The weather is getting crazier out there.
More hurricanes are lashing out, causing more severe damage.
It’s getting hotter, too. Central Florida has always had wild weather patterns, with deluges of rain one month and hot, dry conditions the next.
You have to feel sorry for plants trying to stand up to all this.
Granite is great, and Michelangelo loved marble, but don’t count Florida out when it comes to natural stone.
Sure, we’re known more for shells and sand, but your landscaping can use Florida native stone, too.
Some mistakes aren’t bad, like taking an oatmeal raisin cookie when you thought it was chocolate chip. At least you have a cookie.
Other mistakes, like hiring a bad landscaping company, are worse.
Love strawberries? Chocolate? Coffee? Almonds?
Thank pollinators.
Honeybees, butterflies, and hummingbirds aren’t just flying around out there for fun. They’re doing really important work, pollinating plants.
They could use your help.
If you spend every weekend sweating in your yard taking care of your new landscaping, you’re not doing it right.
A great tree next to your house is a landscaping no-brainer.
A palm tree offers a tropical welcome with a vacation vibe. A great flowering tree can make people gasp when they drive by.
The wrong tree will create roots that can grow right into your foundation, which also can cause gasps, but not in a good way.
