When it comes to design does your garden space utilize paving, like gravel, granite or pavers' with spaces between for ground cover? If your garden and pottery containers watered by a drip system that includes an automatic controller?
Do you reprogram the controller to fit the demands of each season? Like less water in winter and more in summer? How about do you group plants in your containers according to their water needs. This is so important for the plants health and making sure you are not over watering the planter where it will flow outside the pot into the soil from the pots drain hole. |
