Landscaping: Plants and Drought

There are a number of plants that will be very records to put in our garden, taking into account the water savings. The first thing we have to distinguish the climate of our plantation area, we all love the bougainvillea, but can not withstand low temperatures. Therefore we distinguish different situations or climates: 1. – Climate Atlantic climate AtlánticoPor interpret those places where the minimum temperatures are low but rarely rub zero degrees, but instead the maximum usually not very high. Rainfall is also interesting factor to take into account, these areas are widespread rains, and the problem of drought is in a second paragraph. Thus the Atlantic climate zone we can narrow in the north of the peninsula. In these areas I recommend to be somewhat cautious and especially do not think that there will never lack water, taking appropriate measures to avoid waste. In this particular year in Galicia are passing a very bad not only for fires but because the rain makes its appearance. The use of drip irrigation in the gardens and sprinklers or nozzles with developers for the turf are the most interesting measures. What we should never do is the use of irrigation with hoses as water wastage is considerable. If you’re a hedge watering hose, for example and watered while we decided to do another job, most likely to forget us count the time it takes the hose spraying water to our plants and we have a problem not only when the amount of water supplied, but more serious and will be sure that our plants will have an excess of water unnecessary. Normally we can grow the same plants we plant now, I am inclined to these areas by: * * Azaleas Rhododendrons Camellias * * Agapanthus * Buganvillas Caryopteris varieties * * * And Ceanathus a large number of them. I left for her final hydrangeas, I call my plant reference, which is our indicator of the lack of water, are among the first plants to highlight the lack of water, besides lack of trace elements such as iron, iron chlorosis is one of the most typical and identifiable, as the leaf turns yellow but the veins remain green in one volume, surely we all have seen more than once. With regard to the trees we can plant and as the bushes can opt for a large number of them, but in this case I would highlight some that are more special to me: * Albizia julibrinssis var. Rosae, is a tree by its striking pink flowers in summer but also its compound leaf gives a very striking sensations when they are moved by the wind. Its ramifications are often warped and elegant foliage is assimilated to the fern. Supports well be planted by the sea. * Liquidambar stryraciflua. This tree is one that must not fail in a garden, this tree is large in size therefore not very suitable for small gardens, but its trunk winged its large palmate leaves and especially its deep red color before losing sheet, are very pleasant in winter because most of the trees the leaves change to yellow and then fall, not the liquidambar changing to a deep red before falling, so the contrast is incredible. * Bettina pendula alba (Birch). In contrast to earlier in this tree in addition to their slender trunk should highlight their immaculate white, which will gradually peeling, is very appealing especially for children, as they checked in quickly and easily than trees have life and that each variety is different from another, especially in these small details. * Gingko Biloba. Another interesting tree, its features are impressive, is the oldest tree, the leaves of two lobes, which therefore is called biloba are his curiosity as he can be close to confirmed, to have only primary venation. As curiosity is the plant and animal species that stand closest to the epicenter of the atomic bomb. Therefore it must be another tree in our garden shows * I would like to close the chapter are to highlight some more trees, including chestnut, hornbeam, Prune, lagestroemias, etc.. But especially maples, there are a number of interesting varieties in this area are perfectly from the dwarfs (palmatum) we can find varieties of different leaf types and colors, to the largest with innumerable varieties, all magnificent. Interestingly, the real growth of the tree to assess if we can put in our garden or not, if we put a tree too big garden may be too much in shadow, making it even smaller. Another point to consider is the type of soil, although these delimiting the geographical area by the climate and in this case the Atlantic climate gives us a niche specific soil factor is interesting, especially if we find too much clay soils and growth of many varieties of trees and shrubs will be reduced due to this factor. Finally we discuss the conifers. First to make a difference in their height, we say that we have a large varieties and other dwarf varieties so that we focus putting in a garden or another. In small gardens attached large never plant varieties, such as cedar or spruce, is very typical plant the Christmas tree in our garden, but this grows and grows and when it is 6 meters and not as funny or as flashy as we has covered the garden. In this climate we are in, the Atlantic, the varieties that are going to adapt are endless, the only thing we consider is that a garden Commits need very well drained, especially in areas where rainfall is abundant, not we allow these trees have an excess of water and they will begin to have a large number of diseases, especially root as is phytoctora. Another recommendation is that the sea Conifers with not all fit, because the salinity of water, I will not give a list but a recommendation at the time of planting conifers in a garden by the sea, we look at the gardens Municipal our environment, or in private gardens that are around us and with this experience and we will plant our species, with greater security. At a general level, the most commonly used in small and medium gardens are dwarf varieties, for the creation of rockeries, we highlight the following: attach to rock gardens * Ellwoodii * Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Minima Aurea Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Minima Glauca * * Chamaecyparis obtusa Nana * Compress comunis Juniperus Picea Glauca Conica * * * Spruce Picea Glauca Abies Alba nidiformis * Pinus Mugo PumillaRamón Escobar’s chief of staff of Landscaping
