Looking back at this past spring, we’ve noticed quite a few exciting trends that are becoming popular in today’s lawns and landscapes. Here are three of our favorite trends that you should pay attention to!
Native Plants
Homes in our neck of the woods are starting to incorporate more native plants in their garden beds. Not only are native plants more likely to thrive in garden beds, but they also allow gardeners to cut back on the need for water and chemicals like fertilizers and pesticides. By planting native plants, you also attract more honey bees, butterflies and birds to your garden.
Agriscaping
Agriscaping is the practice of incorporating edible plants like herbs, vegetables and fruits into gardens. Not only can edible plants be just as beautiful as flowers, but it also provides food for your table!
If you don’t have a green thumb, but want to get involved in agriscaping, consider starting with some hardy tomatoes and herbs like mint, thyme and rosemary.
Going Green!
Sustainability has become extremely important to our local communities. That is one of the reasons why Vivid Lawn is dedicated to using organic products like Holganix in their lawn fertilization programs. Holganix allows Vivid Lawn to reduce their use of fertilizer and pesticides by 50% while still maintaining the best quality results in the area.
