"Rainbow Landscaping did an amazing job on our yard. They put in a new lawn, flower garden, and irrigation. They also cleaned up our side yard by trimming some overgrown ferns and a tree. The plants they choose really compliment the yard and turned it from an embarrassment into a gem. The team was very responsive, listened to my vision, and then executed it beyond what I could picture. Do yourself a favor and call Rainbow for your next landscaping project."

"Mario is a professional in irrigation systems and I learned a lot just from listening to him. He has quite and extensive knowledge about sprinkler systems, water flow rates, etc. What I thought was a leak at one of my sprinkler heads turned out to be much more. There was no leak at that head, however, Mario knew enough to shut off the rest of the heads. Sure enough the lead was back by the patio, coming from one of the old cheap pvc pipes that break and crack easy. If he didn't know how to find and properly repair that leak, I probably would have spent back breaking hours look for it and never finding it. I will be inviting him back in the future to assess the whole yard. I can highly recommend Eco-organic Landscape Services."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

In addition to aloe vera and lilac, other effective humidity-reducing plants include peace lilies, Boston ferns, English ivy, spider plants, and lucky bamboo. These plants thrive in humid environments and can naturally lower moisture levels. Place them in areas prone to dampness for the best results.

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.
