Why You Shouldn’t Wait to Plan Your Exterior Landscaping
By Raimondi Horticultural Group, Inc
Many people might think that summer is the perfect time to work on exterior landscaping, but by the time summer rolls around, it might be too late. Check out these three reasons to start planning for your outdoor landscape early.
1. Material Availability
Landscape projects require an array of materials to be ordered, obtained, and delivered in unison to your home. Even though it frequently appears simple, there is a lot of coordination between the material provider and your landscaping company that needs to happen — and the exact materials you want may no longer be available if you wait too long. By making advance plans, you can guarantee that the plants, sod, pavers, and other items required for your project will be delivered on schedule and prepared for installation.
2. Scheduling
Every spring and summer, we receive a mad dash of calls from homeowners and business owners inquiring about exterior landscape projects. With the influx of calls, many landscape professionals can only take on so many new projects, and there might not be enough time available for some individuals who inquire too late. The earlier you start planning, the more likely you’ll be able to beat the rush and hire the right exterior landscape professionals for your project.
3. Plant Timing
In many cases, waiting to schedule your project will conflict with when you plan to use it. For example, sod takes about one month to root before it can endure any use. Also, the earlier you install plantings, the less you need to water, which is convenient and a money saver. Planning your landscape allows plants to root and flourish in summer, making your exteriorscape the most beautiful exactly when you intend to enjoy it.
