Lawn Sprinkler and Irrigation System Installation in Boise, ID

Summer. It's that time of year when you get a really, really grasp on how good your plan for watering your yard is as lawns brown and plants wilt seemingly before your eyes on the hotter days. Installing a sprinkler system can help ensure that your grass and softscape features are neither drowning nor hurting for lack of water. There are many, many advantages to installing a sprinkler or irrigation system, including: 

  • Save water: using an automated sprinkler or irrigation system lets you water your vegetation at the most optimal time of day, such as early morning. Watering when it's cooler outside reduces evaporation and maximizes the water you consume.
  • Save money: saving water means a lower utility, and that can add up to some pretty big savings, especially when you consider the long term.  
  • Save time: with an automated sprinkler and irrigation system, the time you would have spent caring for and stressing over your yard can be better spent elsewhere, like enjoying your yard instead! 
Outside of the traditional sprinkler system, one option you may consider is adding a drip irrigation system to your garden or flowerbeds. A drip system is composed of a series of long, plastic or PVC pipes with holes drilled in them in strategic locations. These pipes are placed around flower beds and gardens, allowing a minute amount of water to be delivered to very specific spots. This specialized water deliver allows plants to thrive without wasting excess water as it targets the soil surrounding each plant. 

Our experts at Bella Vista Landscape recommend utilizing both to conserve water and keep your lawn, garden, and flowerbeds thriving and beautiful. If you choose to install a sprinkler system, you may also be interested in our sod, tree, and plant installation services.

Xeriscaping: Low-Maintenance Landscaping with Plants Native to Boise, ID

Image
It’s a well-known fact that Boise--the City of Trees--is a desert; we claim a small piece of  the Great Basin Desert, the only “cold” desert in the United States. If you’ve lived here in the Treasure Valley for very long, you are well aware of our frequent droughts, how frequently we discuss the water levels in our reservoirs, and noticed the low-water plants local to our area, including sage brush, bitterbrush, and arrowleaf balsamroot (those yellow, sunflower-like wildflowers you see during springtime hikes in the foothills). Yet, in Boise proper and into our suburbs, there is a stark contrast to the wild flora: green lawns all summer long are the norm, and few plants frequently used in landscaping are indigenous to Idaho. Today on Bella Vista Landscaping's blog, we'll be discussing a style of landscaping that’s rapidly gaining popularity addresses this difference: xeriscaping.  What is xeriscaping?  Xeriscaping is landscaping focused on low maintenance and low water usage.
