Smart Choices for Bay Area Landscaping

There are many plant choices that can be used for bay area landscaping that use surprisingly little water, and with the help of irrigation equipment upgrades you can increase your irrigation system’s efficiency resulting in water savings.

Water-Efficient Subsurface Drip Irrigation Systems

Landscape management includes the use of drip systems for effective water use especially in tight planter spaces because it waters the roots of plants directly as opposed to over spraying on asphalt, concrete or adjacent structures. Pop-up overhead watering systems are ideal for larger turf areas because they can cover a large area efficiently and economically.

Water Landscaping-Less Frequently

Watering less frequently will make the roots of plants grow deeper into the ground and make the plants healthier and more drought resistant, running irrigation systems during the night or in the early morning will allow for more effective watering since the sun isn’t out and the wind isn’t blowing.

Landscape Maintenance includes checking your Irrigation Pressure

It is also suggested checking the pressure of your irrigation system; too high of water pressure will emit small droplets that are easily blown away by the wind.
