Albuquerque Landscaping Plant Choice Guide – Part One
In Albuquerque, NM picking plants for your home’s landscaping project with your Albuquerque, NM landscaping company is not a piece of cake. One sure fire way to complete your Albuquerque home landscaping project with a flare is to make use of several different types of shrubs. The upside to lots of shrubs is many do not require much care or water, plus several are evergreen, which is even better. Shrubs are great for creating a barrier to your home for better privacy and they help lower street noise coming into your humble abode, i.e. your Albuquerque home.
Here’s a guide on what to consider when landscaping your Albuquerque home with different types of shrubs.
- Strategic Placement
Placing shrubs must be mapped out with a written plan before breaking ground. Once a plan has been made, when shrubs in the plan are being planted be sure to plant each one with a set distance to give each one room to grow to full size. The last thing you want is a bunch of shrubs growing into each other and then getting tangled together. Your plant inventory will be small when they arrive from the local nursery, but eventually they will grow to full size, so that fact should be taken into account when planting.
- Pick Beautiful Blooming Shrubs
If your desire is to have dazzling eye catching landscaping, choose flowering shrubs that bloom multiple times in a season. Flowering shrubs add fragrance, color and vibrance to landscaping, especially for Albuquerque home landscaping, where the landscaping and environment tends to brown here in the Southwest.
- Go with Native Plants
Pick native plants when possible for your home’s landscaping. Native plants require less care, less pest control and less water, making choosing them for your project a wise choice.
Including shrubs in your Albuquerque home landscaping plan is smart because they are normally hearty, and they add lots of wonderful color, fragrances, depth and beauty.
