Plant Selection, Irrigation & Sustainability

Plant health and landscape longevity depend on selecting the right plants for your environment and supporting them with efficient irrigation systems.

Choosing the Right Plants

Homeowners should consider:

• Climate zone compatibility

• Sun and shade exposure

• Soil type

• Water requirements

• Growth rates and maintenance needs

Overplanting or choosing incompatible species often results in higher replacement costs.

Irrigation and Water Efficiency

Modern landscaping often includes:

• Drip irrigation systems

• Smart irrigation controllers

• Zoned watering

• Drainage-aware layouts

Efficient irrigation protects both plants and water budgets.

How Smart Bids Helps

Smart Bids helps homeowners evaluate plant and irrigation strategies during the consultation. Negotiated bids clearly outline planting plans, irrigation systems, and maintenance expectations, making it easier to choose a sustainable, long-term solution.
