Not Fertilizing
Fertilizing may seem to be just an “extra step,” or something you don’t have to invest in to have a healthy lawn. But C and L’s residential landscapers recommend taking the time to properly fertilize all areas of your front yard, including flowers, grass, trees, and other plants. While this may be considered an extra step, it gives your outdoor living space the best chance possible to flourish. If you’re unsure what type of fertilizer to use, or which one would work best, contact C and L today!

Using the Wrong Plants
If you are looking into planting in your front yard or backyard, it’s important to carefully consider which seeds you choose. The success of your residential landscaping project, especially in terms of plants and flowers, depends on choosing the right bulbs that thrive in Jacksonville’s heat and sunshine. If one area of your lawn receives more shade than other areas, it’s important to put a type of plant there that thrives on less sunshine. C and L Landscape also recommends researching companion plants and considering which plants work best when they’re planted right next to each other, to ensure everyone remains healthy.

Inefficient Irrigation
How often is your front yard watered? How about your backyard? Are all your plants getting enough water? Even if you choose the right location in which to place your flowers and herbs, they are less likely to thrive if they aren’t given the right amount of water. C and L, however, can help with this area of residential landscaping by installing an effective irrigation or sprinkler system; this ensures every aspect of your property receives sufficient water without adding more money to your monthly water bill. You can experience the ease of automatic sprinklers by contacting our team!

Not Thinking About Maintenance

Your residential landscape isn’t exactly a ”fix it and forget it” project. C and L Landscpe’s experts know regular maintenance is important in order to keep weeds from growing and to keep everything looking as beautiful and healthy as possible. Investing in regular maintenance once in a while will save you money in the long run, as it prevents you from doing a full overhaul sometime in the future. C & L can even take care of all of this for you, so you can enjoy the view without doing any work.
