Let’s Garden 5 Ways to Plan a Greener Landscaping Project

Content provided by Blog.RosehillGardens.com Making your home more eco-friendly can incorporate many aspects of the property, both indoors and out.

One way to ramp up your “green factor� is by planning landscaping projects that have minimal impact on the natural environment.

Here are five ways to plan a greener landscape: Use plants that are native to the region. This will ensure that they thrive and seasonal pollenation will distribute seeds and pods in areas where the plants already grow well.

Avoid planting large plants and trees in close proximity to your house; this lets natural sunlight reach as much of the house as possible and add a few degrees of heat during colder months.

Minimize or eliminate the amount of chemicals you use to fertilize your lawn and landscaping. Chemicals seep into the ground and get washed into creeks, rivers, and other natural water sources and can harm the environment.

Use eco-friendly landscaping materials, and incorporate natural elements into your hardscaping as much as possible.

Add landscaping elements or more hardy grass that requires less watering. This is beneficial in our Midwest region where summer water rationing or scheduled watering days are common.

For other tips on green landscaping projects @ blog.rosehillgardens.com

“I absolutely loved the beautiful ad you did for us in your magazine.

In fact I have it laminated to use in our promotions. Thanks so much for your outstanding work!”

MaryJo Klier, Director of Kansas City Swim Academy

“Recently, Gwen Kemper was selected to market a property because this particular lady knew we advertised in the KCHOME and Lifestyle. In fact, she pulled out a recent issue to comment on our advertising and said she liked the fact that we did not just advertise on the Internet. Her home featured on the front cover and sold within a short time.”

Micki Trotter/Gwen Kemper of Woodward Real Estate “18 years ago I started my career in real estate. KCHOME and Lifestyle evolved and our listings are distributed by the magazine to hundreds of websites world wide and we get a lot of leads from these websites. To this day, people instinctively pick up the KCHOME and Lifestyle magazine at the grocery store, and we still receive calls daily from those house hunters.”

“KCHOME and Lifestyle has been a great partner through the years.

Always helpful.”

Martin & MaryJo Ricono of Reece&Nichols Lee’s Summit

Let’s Eat

RYEKC: A James Beard Award, features and mentions in national magazines and the use of local farmers speaks volumes about this Leawood restaurant. I heard about the succulent fried chicken melting in your mouth. Yet, the most intriguing was the visible drool while describing the homemade pies from Lemon Meringue to MOKAN pie.

Above pictured was my choice from the appetizer section... A pleasing meal : Whipped goat cheese spread.
