Gardening

For many of us living in Claremont Australia, we have hot, sunny weather for much of the year and we see it as a positive bonus, however, such a climate also comes with its fair share of issues, and one we come across regularly is how the heat and dry weather impacts landscaping and gardens. In particular, the many plants which grow in landscaped gardens have to have first been chosen carefully, and they then also have to be cared for and maintained according to the local weather conditions. One of the natural features you will find in many landscape designs is a tree, and it is trees that grow in hot conditions and their welfare which we are going to focus on in this blog post so that you never have to face the issue of a tree succumbing to the hot summer heat. Plan Ahead One of the most puzzling things for us is when we hear from homeowners who have issues in their gardens caused by heat when we are well into the summer months. It puzzles us because, firstly, summer occurs in the same months every year, and second, with only rare occasions, most areas will have the same hot summer weather each year, so it should never come as a surprise. As such, everyone should be able to plan for the weather that is going to be coming, and if you are not, then by the time you get around to doing anything to help protect your trees it could be too late. So, start planning as soon as possible for the hot weather that is sure to come in summer.
