Q: I'm thinking of waiting until Spring to begin my landscaping project. Isn't this the best time?

Well, it's common to begin thinking about outdoor project in the Spring. Local plant nurseries often stock heavily in the months of April, May, June, and July. However, nature operates on a fairly inflexible schedule. You can stick any plant in the ground, but will it grow ... or thrive?

The 2 main concerns, or criteria, for successful landscaping are temperature and soil conditions. Both of these break down even further to ONE criteria: moisture! Most people don't think about landscaping work in Winter, as plants are dormant and the soil is quite soggy. However, virtually all plants "root establish" in Winter, so it can be an excellent time to stick things in the ground – it's all a matter of soil conditions, and choosing the correct time to do the work.

You should expect to meet with a dedicated landscape professional who will discuss your particular landscaping needs.

Q: How do I take care of my newly installed plants?

The best time to water your plants is in the early morning hours. If using a sprinkler, allow it to run until approximately 1 inch of water has accumulated. It is important to not water broad leaf shrubs in intense sunlight, as water left on the leaves can scorch the leaves. Infinity Landscapes also offers custom built maintenance packages in order to meet your individual needs.
