Pondering pavers?
A new driveway, maybe, or an impressive new paver patio?
Welcome to the world of paver patterns.
It’s a bigger world than you think.
There’s a reason professional landscape designers get college degrees.
Man, there’s a lot of stuff to keep in mind.
When Orlando landscape designers study landscape design, they learn about mass, form, line, texture, and color. Then they combine these elements to transform your yard.
Sounds kind of fancy. But it’s why your new paver patio could have such graceful lines. It’s why your yard could be filled with plants with a variety of intriguing colors and textures.
If your back is killing you, you’re in charge of watching five toddlers, and it’s 97 degrees, laying sod is hard.
If you’re 20, there’s a cool breeze, and you have a whole weekend ahead of you with nothing to do, laying sod isn’t as hard.
You see what we’re getting at here. The concept of “hard” is pretty subjective.
Parts of DIY sod installation are hard, like wrestling with the sod cutter machine you need to remove your old grass.
It doesn’t take an engineering genius to figure out why paver patio and driveway drainage can be a challenge.
You take away grass, which is permeable, and replace it with concrete pavers, which aren’t permeable.
When it rains, the water has to go somewhere, right?
Drip. Drip. Drip.
Uh oh. A constant, steady dripping usually means something’s wrong at your house.
Leaky faucet, maybe, or a leaky roof.
Not this time. When you have a drip irrigation system, a steady drip means your plants are getting watered perfectly, with no wasted water.
No need for your tool box.
What exactly is drip irrigation? Is it right for your Florida landscaping?
Here’s what you need to know.
We’ll be honest here — Bahiagrass isn’t usually a first choice for a residential lawn in Florida.
It’s a mix of grass types that can also include wild grasses and weeds.
We can’t guarantee the quality, because high quality isn’t exactly its claim to fame.
It can even be full of fire ants.
But Bahia grass has some qualities you might like, if you’re the no-maintenance type, don’t want to fuss with irrigation, and are fine with a wilder, pasture-like look.
Is Bahia sod right for you?
