PLANT THE RIGHT TREE
Planting the wrong tree in the wrong place can be very costly. Not
just the cost of the tree at planting time; but future pruning,
removal, root problems and many other issues. GARDEN VIEW NURSERY has
thousands of trees and hundreds of varieties to choose from. The
nursery has very descriptive signage throughout the entire nursery
with pictures of their flowers and our own durability ratings derived
from our 30 years of landscaping experience.
Our knowledgeable sales staff will help you pick the right tree for
your situation. Our experienced installers can deliver and expertly
install your tree. We can also install root guards (helps keep roots
controlled), deep water conduits (encourages deep roots), soggy soil
root protectors (devices & procedures to reduce problems from poor
draining soil).
PLANT THE RIGHT PLANT THAT WILL LIVE!
Do you kill your plants? Maybe it is because you are picking the
wrong plants. Not all plants are durable. At Garden View you will find
that we have signage with our own durability ratings derived fro 30
years of landscaping experience. Our plants are grown locally and are
acclimated to our climate. They are not grown in a greenhouse or
another area and shipped here. They are not overly pumped with
fertilizer and other products so they look great on the shelf but are
not hardened off to tolerate our climate and some abuse.
PRICE IS IMPORTANT but there is a lot more to it than that.
All trees and plants are not equal; even in our own nursery. At one
nursery you may have a larger plant or tree or more robust flowers but
the plant can be pumped so that it looks good on the shelf or at the
nursery. Though this plant may be able to be sold at a lower cost
(because it took less time to grow) or you think it has more flowers
it may not be as good of a deal a slightly smaller plant acclimated to
your climate that was not overly pumped, and may have a more mature
root system, larger caliber, pruned correctly, hardened off and simply
more durable. You can be assured Garden View has very low prices, wide
selection and our staff will help you pick the best plant out of our
extensive inventory.
This is a general
representation of our inventory. Some trees and plants may have
been sold or changed in appearance since the pictures were taken. WATERWISE PLANTING
With
water becoming more scarce and expensive we need to think about how we
use this valuable resource. The plants we use, how we use them, how we
irrigate them and train them (see deep watering in gardening tips) are
all very important in saving water.
Most
of the plants we use on a regular basis need a lot less water than we
give them. Many if not most of our favorite, most durable plants are
very water wise. The plants at Garden View Nursery are labeled for
there water needs.
Plant term definitions:
Water Wise
– Plants that will look good with a minimum amount of water. They may
tolerate a wide range of conditions but still survive on minimum
amounts water. They may not survive long term total lack of water.
Drought Tolerant Plants
– Plants that will survive a drought. The term is applied and often
used by the mainstream to mean water wise though in actuality a drought
tolerant plant should survive total drought. Sometimes Drought Tolerant
plants may not look good with minimum water and may even defoliate or
go deciduous with out water but generally will survive and come back
when they have water.
California Native Plants
- As the name states these are plants indigenous to California. They
are generally water wise and drought tolerant. Most of them should be
planted in fall or winter. Most are somewhat finicky, have low
sustainability or durability ratings in irrigated landscapes and though
they may need some warm season watering they may perish with too often
watering or if they are mixed with plants of higher water needs. In
season Garden View has a selection of some of the most durable and
popular California Native Plants.
Though
it is highly unlikely we will have a total drought on our planted yards
it is not unlikely that we will have water shortages and increased cost
of water. We believe planting water wise plants grouped together and
using quality zoned irrigation systems is the key to having beautiful
gardens that use minimum amounts of water.
