REVAMP YOUR HOME WITH LUSH LANDSCAPING

If you’ve got patchy spots in the lawn, trees with broken

branches and an overall “blah” look to your landscape,

spring is the best time to spruce up your yard and

garden. The right landscaping can enhance your

property value and make the area more enticing to

prospective homebuyers and residents — not to mention

bring you greater joy on a daily basis. Here are some

important considerations to keep in mind when choosing

what to plant, when to plant and how to maintain your

new landscape.

Getting Started: Know Your Limits

If you’re a homeowner who does not live in a managed community, the sky ’s the limit for your landscaping

plans — in theory. It still pays to check local ordinances restricting what you can plant or limits on the size and

type of any structures you wish to add. There may be setbacks or other rules for fences, and it ’s definitely better

to know them ahead of time.

If you share your property with others, check with your HOA about what you can do with landscaping. Some

communities have guidelines for landscaping and require approval before making any modifications. You may

be able to lobby for changes with other property owners, or you

may have the right to start your own vegetable patch or flower

bed — you never know until you check!

In addition to legal and contractual limits to your landscaping

plans, be honest with yourself about the level of work you ’re

willing to put into the maintenance. Do you love to mow the

lawn? Does pulling weeds make you sneeze? How will you keep

tall trees trimmed? In general, you can either spend time or

money to maintain your landscape. If you love gardening, go for

it! If not, choose low -maintenance plants and budget for a local

landscaping company to clean up the property several times per

year to keep things looking good.

Preparing the Plan: Understand Your

Climate

If you pop into a local nursery and ask for advice about what to plant in your landscape, the first question you ’ll

be asked is about your microclimate. There are three big factors to consider when you ’re seeking to understand

the features of the climate in your own backyard:

1. Growing Zone: This is a basic measurement of how hot and cold your area is. Growing zones are based on

how cold it’s likely to get in the winter, since that low temperature is what will kill off a plant that ’s not

suited for your area. It also gives you a general sense of how long your growing season might be: the lower

the number of your zone, the shorter your growing season. One key to landscaping success is to choose

plants labeled for your growing zone so they won ’t struggle in your conditions.

2. Daily Hours of Sunlight: Different areas of your property will experience varying amounts of direct

sunlight throughout the day. It ’s important to watch to see when parts of your yard are in sun or shade, as

this will also determine where you can grow certain plants. Plants labeled for full sun need over six hours of

sunlight per day; partial sun requires about four to six hours; shade means that plants can tolerate less than

four hours of sun. Some plants are further labeled as thriving in “dappled sunlight” or “afternoon shade,” so

it pays to watch your yard for a few days to get a sense.

Page 7: SULLY II TIMESsully2.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Sully-II-Times-Apr-2017.pdf · SULLY II TIMES From your friends at Sully Station II Community Association JOIN US Keep up with

3. Amount of Water: Some plants thrive in arid locations while others need swampy settings. Sure, you can

turn on the sprinklers every day, but it ’s easier — and more sustainable — to plant something that ’s already

well adapted to the amount of rainfall you usually receive. Soil type can influence this aspect of climate as

well. In general, clay soils hold more water, while sandy soils drain quickly. Likewise, low -lying areas may

remain wetter that the top of a hill or knoll.

Choosing Plants: The Must-Haves

At a minimum, residential landscaping should be lush and inviting. You

don’t have to add complex flower beds that require daily maintenance to

improve your curb appeal. Instead, focus on these basics to provide the

backbone of your landscaping plan:

The Lawn: Nothing looks better than a swath of green grass, and

almost every residential property has at least a small lawn. Choose a

grass variety that ’s designed to perform well with the amount of

sunlight you have and the amount of foot traffic you expect. Turf grasses need a good deal of water to look

their best, so plan ahead for irrigation during dry periods.

The Mulch: If you’re having trouble getting grass to grow — or if you live in a very dry climate that makes

maintaining a lawn unsustainable — consider mulched or hardscaped areas instead. Adding a brick patio, a

tidy, mulched flower bed or a border of gravel will cut down on the need to plant and make weeding a snap.

The Shrubs: Foundation plantings help connect buildings to the landscape, so consider adding some shrubs

near the house to soften the look around your home. You can choose from a wide range of flowering shrubs

or evergreens — just be sure that they are well suited to your local growing conditions. It ’s also important

to know how big they’ll get so you can space them appropriately.

The Trees: If you have mature trees already, these are a huge asset. I t ’s worth calling an arborist for a trim

and a check-up once a year to keep these plants in good health. If you don ’t have trees, consider planting

some — they’re a wonderful investment in the future, and well placed trees can provide cooling shade that

lowers your summer energy bills.

Ongoing Care: Seasonal Changes

If you live in an area that experiences all four seasons, it’s smart

to prepare for each season ahead of time to give your plants the best

possible care. Whether you plan to do the work yourself or call in a

landscaping professional, here’s what you need to work on during each

season:

Spring: Remove any dead leaves or fallen branches from

planting beds and lawns before things begin to bloom and grow.

This will allow your plants to get their full dose of sunlight and

make your property look great just when you start to spend more

time outdoors.

Summer: Make sure flower beds, trees and shrubs have a good layer of mulch to keep roots cool and hold in moisture. Summer

is also high season for weeds, so be sure to stay on top of them.

Fall: Rake up fallen leaves promptly, and provide delicate shrubs with sturdy covers to protect them from heavy snows. Fall is

usually a good time to prune shrubs and small trees, as long as you wait for them to drop all of their leaves.

Winter: Keep paths shoveled, and use plant-friendly ice melt when needed.

When you take care of seasonal maintenance and choose plants that will thrive in your landscape, your property is sure to look its

best all year around.

It’s officially “Yard Waste” season!

As winter ends, and the thaw begins you will find yourself with what we call “Yard Waste” in the form of or-ganic matter cluttering your yard; do you know the best way to dispose of your Yard Debris to keep your lawn and the environment green?

Whether its lawn clippings or a barrage of unsightly leaves seemingly dumped onto your lawn; some of us wonder the best way to collect and prepare them for fast, easy and green pickup.

Many people do not realize that yard debris collection is actually considered to be a form of recycling. This can be somewhat confusing as yard debris is not picked up with your Single Stream recyclables.

Instead, brush, branches, grass clippings and tree limbs are broken down organically by a bio-chemical reaction known as composting. Once collected and taken to a special facility, over time, these materials become a new product called compost.

Although we may not think of it in the literal term, composting is still, very much, a form of recycling. In fact, it is possibly the most organic form of recycling, since all material is returned directly to the earth through vari-ous applications to aid in new growth.

But how can you assure that the unsightly organic clutter on your lawn is properly disposed of to ensure it helps the growth of new leaves and blos-soms in the spring?!

The first step is to ensure the correct preparation of your Yard Waste for pick-up.

Defining 'Debris'

First, let's define the FULL list of all accepted yard debris items accepted at your curb.

Leaves

Grass clippings

Tree limbs and brush (bundled and tied)

Christmas Trees

Pumpkins

Proper Preparation for Pick-Up

Loose in a Container The most preferred method of collecting your yard clippings, leaves, and small branches is loose in a container(s) that can be lifted and dumped into our truck. Yard debris that is collected in plastic bags must be broken open before the com-posting process can begin, and for that reason, we recommend that you simply collect it in a "yard debris" labeled reusable container. (Did we mention that you'll be saving on all of those yard debris collection bags by investing in a few sturdy compost collection containers?)

Avoid Late Payments!!!

The Automatic Debit Payment (ACH) program will

debit your account the same day every month and

adjust the fee each year automatically. By using the

ACH program you will never have to worry about

paying on time and will not be late in payments. Best of

all – its free of charge, no coupons and no postage to

deal with!

If you would like more information on ACH payment

program please go to Sully2.com website, or contact

our FSR Community Management Staff at 703-266-

2020, for more details.

Compostable Plastic Bags In certain locations, another accepted method of collection is the use of plastic bags that are certified com-postable. These can be purchased at most home improvement stores.

Brown Paper Collection Bags Similar to a compostable plastic bag, a brown paper collection bag, which can also be bought at a local home improvement store, will break down organically with the collected yard debris.

Bundling Methods

In order for us to collect all of the homes on any given route, tree limbs and brush must be no longer than 4 feet in length and 3 inches thick in diameter. These items must be tied with rope or twine so that one man may easily pick-up. American Disposal

Services will collect a maximum of 10 bags of grass clippings and or leaves, and 10 bundles of brush per pick-up. (There will be an extra charge for additional removal of larger amounts of yard debris that must be sched-uled in advance through our customer service center.)

Try Grasscycling! Grasscycling is the "green" way to keep your lawn beautiful and healthy, and entails leaving the grassclippings ON your lawn after you mow, instead of bagging them.

When clippings stay on the lawn they release important nutrients into the soil, act as mulch and pro-mote natural aeration by earthworms. Clippings decompose and feed the soil the nutrients it needs.

Grasscycling and leaving the clippings on the ground also slows waterloss and reduces the needs for fertiliza-tion.

Just remember to cut the grass only when it’s dry and to always check to make sure your mower blades are sharp before you start you implement this technique.

Things to Remember

Items that are either bagged OR bundled should not exceed 50 lbs.

Bundles should not exceed arm length. If you cannot wrap your arms around the bundle limbs, break it down into multiple bundles.

The following items are not

acceptable for yard debris

collection: mulch, dirt,

rock, shrubs, trees, tree

stumps, and sod

April is

National Donate Life Month National Donate Life Month (NDLM) was instituted by Donate Life America and its partnering organizations in 2003.

Celebrated in April each year, NDLM features an entire month of local, regional and national activities to help

encourage Americans to register as organ, eye and tissue donors and to celebrate those that have saved lives through the

gift of donation.

National Donate Life Month 2017

Donate Life America was inspired by the concept of the pinwheel for the 2017 National Donate Life Month artwork. A

pinwheel evokes various images and meanings, but the strongest association revolves around opportunity and energy.

The pinwheel is symbolic of an instrument that turns obstacles into opportunities. The pinwheel’s ability to capture and

pass on energy parallels one’s potential to make LIFE possible. Each Donate Life pinwheel has four sails supported by

one stem, symbolizing the power one person has to be an organ, eye, tissue or living donor. For recipients, donation can

turn sickness and injury into a second chance at life. For donors, their decision to register can turn a sorrowful time into a

source of comfort for family as a result of renewed life for others.

The pinwheel reminds us that we all have the potential to capture and pass on life, comfort and hope to others by

registering as a donor. This April, we encourage you to stop to feel the breeze, watch the pinwheels and think of the lives

of those touched by donation and transplantation.

We wish you a Happy National Donate Life Month. Thank you for your efforts in educating and registering others as

organ, eye and tissue donors!

April's birthstone is the diamond.

The birth flower is typically listed as either the Daisy (Bellis perennis) or the Sweet Pea.

The zodiac signs for the month of April are Aries and Taurus.
