Eco-Friendly Oklahoma Landscaping

I always think about eco-friendly household cleaners, organic produce, and green flooring. Another way to be more eco-friendly, however, is to consider eco-friendly landscape. Here are some easy ways to improve your environment through landscaping.

• Reduce energy costs by planting deciduous shade trees. These trees will allow warmth in the winter and help reduce heat in the summer.
• Use evergreen trees to reduce cold wind in the Winter. Evergreens should be planted in an area that will block the wind during cold weather months.
• Add plants that are native to your area.
• Plan for irrigation, plants, and garden design that will save water.
• Consider solar powered landscaping lights.
• Remember that there are many eco-friendly choices for mulch today. Among them are rubber mulch and garden glass. Products such as garden glass never need to be replaced and look beautiful as well.
