Episode description

Springtime is the perfect opportunity to outfit your yard in a ‘riot of color’ – but what to plant, where to plant it and why? On this episode of Open House, Reba and Eric consider Northwestern horticultural options for your outdoor spaces with landscape design expert, Michael Muro.

You’ll discover:

·        Important dynamics to consider before laying out your landscape.

·        The impact Covid has had on outdoor spaces.

·        Trending features of exterior design.

·        Garden layouts that make sense from a maintenance perspective.

·        What plants adapt best to the prospect of drier, hotter summers.

·        Why it’s crucial to project the impact of plants and trees long-term.

·        The varieties of hebe best fitted to the Northwest (and those that could give you the ‘heebie-jeebies’)

·        Which slugs pose a threat to your garden, which don’t, and what to do about them (and it DOES NOT involve salting).

Plus Reba details how seasonal activity has ‘slightly pruned’ the housing market, and sounded a wake-up call for sellers who overshot when pricing their ‘ugly babies’. 

So tune in for some great tips on sprucing up your outdoors (and making your home a bit more appealing to prospective buyers) on this episode of Open House with Team Reba.
