22 Apr Irrigation Beats Dry Weather
The warm, sunny spell we’ve experienced over the period leading up to Easter has been very pleasant in many ways. Those of us lucky enough to have a garden have enjoyed sitting outside, soaking up the sunshine. It’s hard to see this beautiful weather as anything other than a blessing. However, we’re all aware that drier, hotter springs and summers will have a huge impact on our plants. Reduced rainfall means plants produce less leaves, flowers and fruit unless you water your garden. It’s unusual to have to water the garden daily in April, but that’s what’s happening. If you have anything larger than a tiny garden, or if you’re pressed for time, that’s a big hassle. But never fear, Rosewood can offer you the solution! Garden irrigation beats dry weather without the effort!
Our irrigation doesn’t just save you time and energy, of course. We carefully design every one to ensure that each plant receives exactly the water it needs, taking away the guesswork involved in watering. A system has multiple zones depending on the planting in any individual garden. We group together plants with similar requirements into one zone, and each zone has separate settings for watering. An electronic controller governs the whole system, switching each zone on and off as programmed.
You might wonder whether this is too complicated, but it’s very simple indeed. Our installation engineers programme the controller for you at the time they install your garden irrigation. You don’t ever have to touch it again, but if you need to, you can make adjustments to the settings. You an also override settings when necessary, and even use an app on your phone to operate your irrigation remotely. This is brilliant for when you’re on holiday!
As climate change makes our English weather hotter and drier during the spring and summer, we think automatic watering systems will prove ever more necessary. Why not get in touch with us today? Find out just how much our irrigation could help your garden thrive!
