watering in a suburban garden...how do you guys do it?
Comments (9)I know just how you feel! Before we put in irrigation, my husband swore that his Native American name would be DANCES WITH HOSES. I put in the Drip Works dribbler systems in all my rose beds, so I just had to hook a hose to it and leave it on until the roses got a good deep soak. I found they were much more efficient than the soakers, and last a lot longer. But we did have to move hoses from bed to bed to do that. A good 3-4" of mulch helps hold in the moisture. When we finally put in irrigation (truly the 8th wonder of the world) they just hooked the irrigation system into the dribbler system, so I could keep watering the roses from the bottom instead of overhead. The other pre-irrigation helper was our 'tractor' sprinkler - they really are neat - you just lay out your hose around the garden where you wish to water, hook the traveling unit to the end of the hose and let it water the garden, following the track of the hose. It saved a lot of hose hauling, but I still preferred to water the rose beds at the base instead of overhead.

Comments (8)Or...you could order the impress aluminum labels from the manufacturer for a very good price at http://www.amekron.com I find that they hold up way better than the flimsy ones from other suppliers that have only a single hole for the stainless steel wire. Since I've been using the Amekron labels I haven't lost one. The old ones have littered my landscape as they inevitably fall off after a few years because the wire works its way through the thin aluminum.

Comments (6)Hi stacyneil, No pics yet...we aren't finished. But those Pro Wood people have literally hundreds of cool brackets and good pergola components you should look at! I feel like doing a big ad for them on the kitchens forum because they have cool (simple) corbels for counter overhangs and range hood mantels and of course fireplaces. I had someone make brackets for the outside of our mudroom door and they're so awful compared to what I could have gotten if I had known about these guys earlier! I really like the pergola idea... And I am "Vintage Cream in the City" kitchen--HOPE that's the fabulous one! (-: (-: (-: ~Amy...See More- 15 years ago
