6 Tips for the Pool Landscape

April 23rd, 2011

Plant bignonia tangerine beauty or other flowering vines to grow up trellis panels for privacy
Select trees that are columnar with contained root systems
Summer flowering plants attract bees & other insects – limit their use
Use plants with thorns (rosa rugosa or barberry) in the perimeter area only
Deciduous plants shed their leaves – use sparingly or only in the perimeter area
Limit lawn spaces near the pool as grass clippings often go into the water
