Drip Line Irrigation Tips:
Irrigation installers from Visual Landscape Gardening have over 30 years installing drip line irrigation systems to garden beds for economical watering of plants, vegetables and flowers.
Digging in a good quality organic mulch before planting will aid drainage and root growth. Consider top dressing after the drip lines have been laid with river pebbles, a popular low maintenance alternative to bark chip, that won’t decompose, change colour and are wind resistant too!
Another low maintenance solution is to have rubber mulch laid. Made from rubber tyres, it has weed retardant properties and will stay in place and not break down like bark mulch does.
