The Benefits of Installing an Irrigation System in Western North Carolina

Gardening and landscaping in Western North Carolina can be a challenge due to its arid and mountainous climate. Without the right irrigation system, it can be difficult to maintain a healthy and flourishing garden or landscape. Fortunately, installing an irrigation system can help address these challenges and provide numerous benefits for gardeners and landscapers alike.

An irrigation system is designed to save time and effort by automatically providing water to plants when they need it most. This helps promote healthier plants that are more resistant to disease, while also reducing the amount of water used for gardening or landscaping. In fact, studies have shown that an irrigation system can reduce water usage by up to 50%, making it an important tool for conserving precious resources.

In addition, having an irrigation system installed in Western North Carolina can help reduce labor costs associated with manual watering of plants. With a properly installed irrigation system, gardeners and landscapers no longer have to worry about manually watering their plants every day. This allows them to focus on other tasks such as pruning, weeding, fertilizing, etc., without having to worry about the tedious task of manually watering each plant every day.

Finally, installing an irrigation system in Western North Carolina can provide peace of mind knowing that your plants will always receive the right amount of water at the right time. This helps ensure that your plants remain healthy and vibrant throughout the year without having to worry about over-watering or under-watering them.

At B. H. Graning Landscapes, Inc., we understand how important it is for gardeners and landscapers in Western North Carolina to have access to reliable irrigation systems that help conserve resources while promoting healthier gardens and landscapes. That's why we offer free estimates so you can learn more about this valuable product and its installation process.

Native Plants for Western North Carolina Landscaping: The Best Options for Low Maintenance Beauty

When it comes to landscaping in Western North Carolina, many homeowners are looking for ways to add beauty and value to their property without a lot of hassle. One of the best options is to incorporate native plants into your design. Native plants are well-adapted to the local climate and soil conditions, making them low maintenance and easy to care for.

At B. H. Graning Landscapes, we specialize in helping our clients create beautiful outdoor spaces with native plants that will thrive in their environment. From shrubs and trees to ground covers and ferns, there are dozens of species that can be used to create a stunning landscape design with minimal effort.

For example, consider adding viburnums or hollies instead of autumn olives, or one of the dozens of native oaks available in the region. These trees provide important nesting habitat for wildlife while also providing shade and beauty throughout the year. Groundcovers like Antennaria plantaginifolia or Carex pensylvanica can help fill in bare spots while adding texture and color to your garden beds. And don’t forget about flowering perennials like cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis) or butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa), which attract pollinators while adding pops of color throughout the season.

At B. H. Graning Landscapes, we have years of experience helping our clients choose the right native plants for their landscapes so they can enjoy a low-maintenance yard that looks great all year long! Give us a call at 828-586-8303 today to get started on creating your dream outdoor space!

The Benefits of Year-Round Landscape Maintenance for Your Western North Carolina Home or Business

If you own a home or business in Western North Carolina, investing in year-round landscaping maintenance is a smart decision. Not only does it improve the aesthetic appeal of your property, but it can also make your outdoor space safer and more functional. Here are just a few benefits of maintaining your landscaping throughout the year.

1.           Maintain Your Property Value

By keeping your landscaping well-groomed and maintained throughout the year, you are ensuring that your property maintains its value. It's easier to upkeep a property than to try and restore it later on. You'll also be able to maximize the potential of your outdoor space, since you can fully utilize it all season long.

2.           Prevent Pest Infestations

Insects and rodents thrive on unwarranted plant growth. Regular landscaping services can ensure that there are no hiding and habitation points for harmful pests. Well-manicured trees, bushes, and other vegetation also leave no room for critters to scamper and nests to settle, especially as the fall and winter months approach.

3.           Ensure Your Landscape is Safe

Safety is a top priority for any property owner. Maintaining your landscaping throughout the year ensures that unwanted debris, broken limbs, and unsightly weed growth don't cause any injuries or damages on your property.

4.           Keep Your Landscaping Healthy

Regular maintenance is vital for ensuring that your landscaping stays vibrant year-round. With the right watering routine, feeding schedules, and pruning techniques, year-round maintenance promotes healthy, thriving plants that have significant benefits to the environment. Additionally, healthy and well-groomed plants enhance the curb appeal of the property.

5.           Save Time & Money

Hiring professional landscapers to maintain your property year-round saves you time, effort, and even money in the long run. Instead of spending hours every weekend tending to the landscaping, you can enjoy your outdoor space instead. Plus, if you have scheduled maintenance services, it is easier to stay on top of long-term upkeep tasks such as pest management, fertilization, and irrigation.

Call B. H. Graning Landscapes today at 828.586.8303 to schedule your site evaluation to ensure your landscaping is maintained throughout the year. Our team of experts provides high-quality and professional landscaping services for both residential and commercial clients throughout Western North Carolina. Invest in your property by keeping your landscaping healthy and well-maintained throughout the year.

"My most favorite aspect of working here is in relation to the places I get to visit. Every home is different, being outdoors, seeing the amazing views across the different counties, and although what we do is relatively the same, it is also very different with new challenges that make for a quick and eventful day. I have learned a lot about the different types of hardscapes and the required installation techniques, in addition to the amazing possibilities when it comes to landscape design and install. B. H. Graning Landscapes has plenty of opportunity for advancement for those willing to put in the time and capable of learning new skills. It’s a local company for me so that makes the commute to the office great. I was looking for a local company that allowed me the opportunity to expand, use my existing skills and somewhere I could be involved in helping others produce the best results possible. After hiring some of the crew members for key positions within the Construction Department, I wanted to make a point allowing those that showed promise and drive, the opportunity to move up through the ranks. As the company has been growing each year, new positions are generated, and we have promoted from within whenever possible." ~ Lewis Bowyer

“I was a little nervous my first day. Starting a new job usually is, but the process went smoothly and put me at ease. Now it feels like family. You learn different things from each new person you work with and we all work well together. I knew nothing about traffic control or street sweeping. Now I do. Working here teaches you to see the details. I joined B. H. Graning Landscapes for several reasons: year-round work, reputation of the company and it is a company where I can grow. Paid holidays are great. Employee of the month is a definite plus. I am always learning and making new friends.” ~ Robin McPhail
