H2-Oh!—Some Facts About Water

We all know water is one of the main sources of life—what would Milwaukee landscaping be without it?

But there’s more to it than that. For all you science geeks out there, water is also the universal solvent. What does that mean? Well, it means that more things dissolve in water than any other liquid.

Water also forms into drops—a thing called capillary action. When we combine the drop-forming action of water with its ability to dissolve minerals and fertilizes, we get plants that have the ability to absorb food through their leaves.

Pretty interesting stuff. For more nerdy factoids or to set an appointment, dial 414-483-0299.

Bark Up the Right Tree

People usually warn against barking up the wrong tree, but have you ever considered barking up the right tree?

Cheesy as it may sound, Advance Landscape in Milwaukee offers an exceptional variety of not only bark, but also stone, decorative rock, soil, plants, straw, sod, bagged goods and much more. Want something else? No problem, we’ll get it for ya.

And why stop at trees? You can also bark up the right garden or shrub—whatever you can imagine to complement the beauty of your yard.

Grace Your Space

Good landscaping is all about how you make the most of your space. In order to do that, you must consider what you like, conceptualize your ideas and finally work with your landscaper (that’s us) to execute.

So what do you like? To start, it can be very helpful to look at what you already have in your yard. How do your favorite pieces look throughout the year? What’s easy or hard to manage? What color palette do you hope to achieve?

Need some quick inspiration? Simple searches for keywords like “beautiful landscaping Milwaukee” or landscaping relative to the type of home you live in can yield dozens of applicable examples.

Remember, be as analytical as possible in these beginning stages, for the more details we have, the better we can implement your vision!

TIP: Steal Water from Mother Nature

Meet your accomplice: the rain barrel.

A rain barrel is, well, a barrel that collects and stores rainwater from your roof that would otherwise be lost. Typically 55 gallons in volume, rain barrels are composed of a drum, hose, PVC couplings and filter grate to keep debris, insects and other nasty things out of your fresh water.

What this means for you? Well, with the rising price of water, an increasing amount of folks are “harvesting” the rain to save money. And considering the wet spring we’ve been having, there’ll be plenty to go around.

Feed your garden the way Mother Nature intended. Be a thief.

What is a compost?

“Going Green” has many connotations, and some of the simplest and cheapest ways to save the planet doesn’t include buying a $40,000 hybrid vehicle. If you’re a green thumb and like to see beautiful things grow, there’s a very easy way to do it: start a compost!

Compost is a very dark soil that contains many rich nutrients that plants absolutely love. Combining all your organic and decomposable trash in one container—food scraps, egg shells, raked leaves—this matter breaks down through the use of bacteria, fungi and worms to create plant food that is one of the best substitutes for dangerous and expensive fertilizers. You’re saving space in landfills and giving your green friends living outside your house the nutrition they not only want but thrive in.
