Dry shade is a shaded area that gets little to no water. If you have a dry shade area on your property and wish to grow plants there, you may find it to be problematic. Most plants require both water and sunlight in abundant quantities in order to grow, so the challenge is to find those plants that can tolerate a lack of these two elements.

These dry, shaded conditions are characteristic of areas underneath trees or beneath the eves of your home. Beneath trees, the roots absorb a good portion of the available water, and house eaves block rain from direct contact with the area beneath them.

In order to increase the soil’s water retention, use compost before you begin planting. This gives the soil the absorbency to catch any moisture that flows through, much like a sponge.

There are many exquisite plants that can stand dry shade conditions. Some attractive varieties include (photo top left to bottom right) English ivy plants, foxglove, hosta, liriope spicata, scilla siberica, snowdrops, spotted dead nettles, stella de oro daylily and vinca minor vines.

Pressure washing is a great alternative to painting your home or deck. The exterior of your home or business makes a statement to your visitors and neighbors. Instead of spending the time and money on repainting, give your home a fresh appearance.

Pressure washing not only protects from everyday elements and toxins, but helps remove accumulated dirt, mold, mildew and fungus from the structure. For that reason, our advice is keeping it clean by having pressure washing done every 6 months. In Florida, these situations get worse with time and catching any growth in its early stages is important to avoid bigger problems in the future.

We offer pressure washing for driveways, walkways and fences as well for your home or business. Consider us first when in need for pressure washing of your trim gutters, boats, RV`s and mobile homes as well to make them look brand new and beautiful again.

A well-maintained lawn is critical for an upkept appearance. Most lawns need regular seeding, fertilizing, aerating, and mowed regularly. Avoid removing more than one third of the grass blade in one cutting. Prune your overgrown shrubs being careful not to chop down to unnatural square shapes. Then remove weeds and remulch your lawn for a finished look. A lawn renovation could be in order if it has patchy or bald spots.

Keep your yard tidy by removing anything that may not belong there. Store kids toys and bikes in a shed or garage. Empty and toss dead plant containers. Get rid of junk, trash or anything else that is cluttering up the lawn. Sweep your steps, decks, porches or other hard surfaces, and if needed, power wash the house, wood and concrete.

Review these benefits of container garden landscaping for some new ideas for your landscape. Growing a container garden simply means a garden in pots and planters. The many benefits of container gardens could make this choice an attractive one for your landscape.

Container gardens are an option to choose for the ease of mobility. Plants in pots are easier to transport than those planted into the ground, making your landscape flexible. When weather conditions get harsh, bring your garden with you inside and transplant them back when they’re finished blooming.

Pots set the stage in outdoor rooms or even steal the attention of your landscape. Group sun-loving plants around a large houseplant that’s summering outdoors. A jumble of various pots stacked on stands and clustered loosely lends a pleasantly casual look.

Potted plants generate an interest in your landscape. Group them strategically to break the monotony and give your garden a theme with a touch of pizzazz. Container gardens can keep out unwanted pests as well. Your potted plants can keep out unwanted weeds, bugs and insects.

Review our landscape lighting advice for some great ideas for outside your home. Since the possibilities for lighting are practically endless, you are only limited by your budget, personal preferences and the size and shape of your landscape.

Highlight your trees and shrubs using a spotlight to create a dramatic effect. Light your walkways with lights that shine down so people can walk without fear of tripping. Illuminate the borders of your flowerbeds to draw attention to certain landscape features. Light up your water fountains, ponds and other architecture such as columns and trellises for a beautiful effect. You can even use solar lighting which is now becoming more popular and inexpensive. Solar lighting can be used around light sensitive plants and also means no electrical wires to deal with.

Strategically place path lights, well lights and bullet lights either up or down at your trees, plants, shrubs and flowers. With lighting, less is more, and the right landscape lighting techniques and creativity will allow your visitors to see your elements instead of the light source itself.

Consider these landscaping food for thought tips to enhance your Florida home.

Combine fruit-bearing herbs, shrubs, vegetables and flowers to enhance your yard and landscape with a mini-garden. Plant tomatoes, basil and potatoes so that part of your vegetable shopping is as simple as going out to your garden and hand picking fresh dinner fruits and vegetables. Think about what fruits and vegetables you like and research the harvesting season for each one. No matter what size garden you have, you can implement edible gardening practices.

Much garden design advice revolves around color and textures. Colors are what most gardeners are drawn to, so an attractive design involves proper combinations. Choose the colors and shades that are vibrant and pleasing to look at. Use complementary colors with your flowers and evenly distribute your plants amongst them.

Controlling insects in your garden this time of year could be an exhausting task. Summertime is known for growing delicious fruits and vegetables, but also a time for insect infestations. Review these tips and advice for keeping insect attacks to a minimum.

Insect populations tend to increase with the warm climate and migration, increasing the pressure on your plants’ potential for damage. Utilize a diversity of plants to create a diversity of plants not allowing a single pest variety to get out of hand. When you identify what bug is causing damage to your garden, eliminating the problem is easier.

Choose vegetables and fruits that are more resistant to insect attacks to reduce the need to spray. Spraying should always be a last resort, and using proper methods to avoid insect infestations could help you avoid using chemicals to protect your garden, therefore inviting beneficial insects such as ladybugs. Using sprays that repel rather than kill bugs can be less harmful to your plants, although they may need to be applied more often.

Rotating crops can reduce the number of harmful insects in your garden. Keep fruits off the ground to avoid critters such as slugs and other bugs from festering on them. If you see any eggs from potential problem bugs, dispose of them to reduce the population and potential problem. Keeping your garden clean and healthy could also reduce insect problems by removing rotting fruits, using mulch to avoid a moist foundation, and trellis your plants vertically.
