Tips For Landscaping Like A Pro
Yesterday marked the first official day of summer, and that means spending more time outside and in the yard. It could also mean you’re feeling envious of your neighbors perfectly manicured lawn and if so, that’s all about to change.
On Saturday, 6/16, Weaver Gardens and Morano Landscape Garden Design Ltd. participated in a FOX & Friends segment entitled, “Tips for Landscaping like a Pro” with the National Association of Landscape Professionals. The streets of Manhattan were transformed into a stunning oasis through the efforts of our very own, Morano Landscape and Weaver Gardens. A beautiful set featuring gorgeous styling and incredible products by McKay Landscape Lighting and Campania International, enabled Missy Henriksen (VP/Spokesperson for NALP) to talk about the latest trends in landscaping.
Here's what she had to say -
Vertical Garden Planters are modular so you can fill entire walls. As you can see, this unit (made from scratch at Weaver Gardens) has the ability to transform a gloomy window into a plant filled paradise. Start small with a couple panels then add more as you learn how the system works.
Vegetable Towers are a cost effective way to access fresh produce throughout the year. You’ll enjoy the ease of use, the speed of growth, the fresh flavor and the nutritional quality of the foods you eat. Plus, it's pretty to look at too!
Thrillers, Fillers, and Spillers are plant arrangements that contain height and visuals. Professionals do this as a way to bring planters to life in an outdoor living space. As the name implies, thrillers are the big, attention-getting star players. They are usually tall, upright plants, with outstanding qualities. Fillers add mass to the overall composition and, more important, establish a dialogue with the thriller. Spillers sprawl over the side of the container, softening its edges and tumbling toward the ground.
