My Internship Week 9

Moving on to exterior landscaping with Integrity Landscaping

hola, ¿qué pasa? Another thing I did not expect to learn in the U.S., Spanish! And, of course, I love it!

You must have noticed that it took me a little more time to write the paper this week. It's because I get home ready to bathe and go to bed—landscaping outside is very tiring! But it is very interesting! Here are just a couple of quick notes, not all because there is so much, about what I'm doing and learning with Integrity Landscaping.

Planting trees: sounds easy, huh? Even if the tree is small, believe me, it is heavy! When we transplant, or move a grown plant from one pot to another or directly to the ground, it is important to "break" the little roots. The purpose is to unpack the soil that clings between the root and call upon the root to grow and spread to the soil in which it was inserted.

Planting lawns: The "lawns" we plant come in large rolls. You should plant them at different levels, without following a line (like a brick wall) so it doesn't create paths for water in between the grass.
