Q: What is the best ground cover for a septic field?

• <div><p>The best <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/landscaping-around-your-septic-system.htm">landscaping for a septic drain field</a> is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.</p></div>

Q: How do I slope water away from my house?

• <div><p>The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-do-i-regrade-around-my-house-foundation.htm">Regrading around your fountain</a> should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or &ldquo;pond.&rdquo; </p></div>

Q: Can you negotiate landscaping prices?

• <div><p>Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you&rsquo;re working. In most cases, you&rsquo;ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they&rsquo;re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.</p></div>

Q: Can you hydroseed with a garden hose?

• <div><p>Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you&rsquo;ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it&rsquo;s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.</p></div>

Q: What does a xeriscaped lawn look like?

• <div><p>Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/beyond-xeriscaping-how-create-low-water-landscape-design-your-yard.htm">xeriscape ideas</a> for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.</p></div>

We’re extremely pleased with the beautiful job Delanson Gardens did on my mother’s grounds. She had had past negative experiences with two other local so-called “landscaping” companies, who only wanted to mow and dump weedkiller so they could go on to multiple other jobs the same day, but...
