Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.

There are several potential disadvantages to choosing xeriscaping for your yard. For one, it can take a lot of hard labor and dedication to get your xeriscape up and running, and the project costs an average of {AvgCost}. Your lawn will also have less of a traditional green appearance, potentially decreasing your pool of potential buyers if you decide to sell. On a personal note, you also might not like having less greenery in your yard.

Typically, landscaping costs about $3,500 on average. Several factors cause the price range to vary from as low as $200 to as much as $14,000. For example, major cost factors include your geographic location, yard size, project size, materials you choose, site preparation, and type of landscaping, among other factors. Keep in mind that labor costs will range from $50 to $100 per hour for a professional landscaper.

Before you begin landscaping with rocks, put down a weed barrier or landscape fabric to prevent pesky weeds from poking through.
