"Prompt, knowledgeable, courteous, hard-working, and dedicated to fair pricing and exceptional results—That’s NPC 3 Services. Nick’s immediate response to my landscaping emergency, coupled with his extensive plant knowledge and exceptional attention to detail, made NPC 3 the clear choice. His positive can-do spirit and ability to visualize the potential of my property quickly confirmed that we were on the same page. In record time, Nick and his team transformed my overgrown outdoor space by expertly reviving my shrubs and rhododendrons, restoring my half-century-old Red Japanese Maple to its former glory, and completely eliminating dozens of invasive bittersweet vines. The dense overgrowth along my property line was efficiently cleared and removed. I was thoroughly impressed by Nick’s skill and professionalism, and I wholeheartedly recommend NPC 3 Services to anyone seeking a reliable and trustworthy landscaping expert. You won’t be disappointed!"
Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.
There are many benefits to raised garden beds. It’s easier to control weeds and enrich the soil. The truth is, most top soil isn’t suitable for growing veggies, and you’ll need to make adjustments. It’s easier to adjust a controlled space than a large area.
Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.
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.
If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home.
That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.
