Are you a Philadelphia or Main Line homeowner considering landscaping and gardening resolutions for 2012? We make resolutions to change personal habits and motivate us to accomplish many goals, let’s extend that practice to setting goals for landscaping and gardening. As garden lovers anticipating the end of snow, and first evidence of spring blooms, we can begin now to formulate plans for 2012. Let’s consider New Year’s resolutions 1 and 2 for your landscape and garden goals for 2012. PART II will include resolutions 3 and 4.
Hardscaping With Seasonal Color and Interest
Resolution #1. Remove Dead Trees and Limbs.
Have you been looking at those few dead or dying trees thinking that you need to retain a tree service to come look at them and give you an estimate on removal? That is a good plan. If they are near the property line, your neighbor will appreciate that plan as well.
Resolution #2. Retain a Landscape Designer to Design and Estimate New Hardscaping.
There are so many wonderful options for hardscaping, including walks, patios, stone retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, ponds, and more. Instead of spending another year wondering what you could be doing, and how much it would cost, why not hire a landscape designer. Retain the designer to provide some schematic ideas, outline the specifications and prepare quotes. Take those few steps, and then you will know what your options are. You can phase the work, and have it done by early summer.
