birmingham alabama real estate: Lantana Great for the Hot Days of Summer.
- 06/20/08 11:05 AM
Yes, Summer is here! Temperatures in the 90's, and the humidity makes it feel like over 100! Those plants - such as petunia - that looked so good in May, have to be watered constantly, and even then are beginning to look really tired out. So what about Curb Appeal!! I think Lantanas are a wonderful choice for our hot summers. They come in several colors: bright golden yellow, yellow and orange blends and lavender. The golden variety is a perennial and will come back next summer (not in the spring for those of us who tend to be impatient). I … (0 comments)

birmingham alabama real estate: Don't Take Down the Tree - Fix the Sidewalk
- 06/11/08 04:10 AM
It is no secret I love trees. I cried when they started cutting down the trees to widen HWY 150 in Hoover. Do you remember how the trees used to make a canopy over the road by the Lake Crest subdivision? It was always 5 degrees cooler when you passed under those trees - not the 100+ temps we drive in now! The benefits of trees are endless. I have two large trees is my backyard. One is a cottonwood that gives me the worst case of sinus in the spring - but the tree isn't going anywhere!!

birmingham alabama real estate: Selling Your Home? Get That Colored Mulch out of the Flowerbeds!
- 05/20/08 10:42 AM
When driving down the street in a neighborhood, have you ever seen that red mulch made of recycled rubber sticking out at you? Now I know we are trying to go "green" and recycle, however, we need to remember that curb appeal is critical to getting the most money for your home. The red color is bad enough, but sometimes it even clashes with the color of the house and WOW. Also, because the eye is drawn to the colored mulch and not the plants, you totally loose the value of the hard work and money you have spent on planting … (0 comments)
