Water-Saving plant choices are more attractive, healthier and better for Commercial Properties, HOA and Retail Landscaping

Smart Plant Choices help with Water Conservation
There are many plant choices that use surprisingly little water. There are also several irrigation equipment upgrades that can increase your irrigation system’s efficiency which can result in saving water and ultimately saving money.
Water-Efficient Subsurface Drip Irrigation Systems
The drip system is effective 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.
Check 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.
