Q: What can I plant over my septic leach field?

• <div><p>Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don&rsquo;t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Do rock gardens need water?

• <div><p>Yes, rock gardens do need water. That said, they typically require less regular watering and, instead, more occasional, deep watering since the rocks trap moisture for longer than mulch. Make sure you don&rsquo;t water your rock garden too much during the winter. </p></div>

Q: Is xeriscaping less expensive than traditional landscaping?

• <div><p>Xeriscaping can be more affordable than traditional landscaping, but it depends on your landscape design. However, you will save on water. If you live in an arid climate or a location prone to droughts, xeriscaping is an especially efficient way of reducing your lawn&rsquo;s water demand without detracting from the beauty of your yard.</p></div>

Q: How do you use old tires in a garden?

• <div><p>Many people have used old tires in gardens as raised beds, planters, tree rings, and DIY decor. However, these uses are not recommended due to the toxicity of many of the chemicals used to manufacture tires. These chemicals can leach into the soil and water as the tire breaks down, creating environmental pollution and health hazards for gardeners and their families. </p></div>

Q: What are the colors of the foliage?

• <div><p>During the fall, you&rsquo;re likely to see foliage in stunning shades of orange, red, yellow, and brown. These colors emerge because of a seasonal decline in the pigment chlorophyll that makes leaves green.</p></div>

Luis and the crew did an outstanding job. Our church had a longstanding leak that we tried to repair ourselves but were unsuccessful. They arrived on time and repaired the issue. Came in on budget as well. Thorough job. Very professional. Highly recommend.
