Have you ever driven by a 新栽的风景?  如果是这样，你可能会注意到许多植物都很小.  

I like to joke that sometimes you need a magnifying glass just to see the new 植物s. 但 as small as they are, within a short amount of time, those 植物s start to grow.  

Look at the same l和scape three years later. The 植物s are well-established 和 look great.  

快进8 - 10年, 和 you may start to see signs of some 植物s becoming overgrown 和 unattractive.

当这种情况发生在灌木上时, betway旗舰版下载通常可以按下“重启按钮”(对于大多数类型的灌木)，在春天用一对好的修剪器修剪它们, 这就减少了它们的体积. 我用我的 电晕斩波器 去修剪我的灌木.

然而，在一些植物中，这种方法不起作用.

让betway旗舰版下载找出其中的一些植物，以及一旦它们长得超出了指定的空间或被旧植物填满了，该如何处理它们, 伍迪增长.

甜点勺(Dasylirion wheeleri)

Desert spoon is one of my favorite 植物s.  我喜欢它的蓝灰色, 尖尖的叶子为花园增添了质感，并与深绿色叶子的植物形成对比.  

After ten years or more in the l和scape, 沙漠的勺子 can start to take on a ragged, 而其貌不扬的外表, 以及长得相当大.

当这种情况发生, I recommend that they be removed 和一个 new one 植物ed in its place.  

现在, some of you may think that may seem wasteful, but I invite you to take another look at your l和scape 和 the 植物s within it.

Your outdoor space isn’t static 和 unchanging. Its appearance changes with the seasons with 植物s blooming at different times. Trees gradually extend the amount of shade they provide 和 植物s change in size.  

A newly 植物ed garden doesn’t look the same through the years, it changes.  

Trailing Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis ‘Prostratus’)

Rosemary is a good choice for those who want rich, dark green color in the garden. 蜜蜂喜欢在冬末和春天开的浅蓝色的花, 芳香的叶子可以用来给你最喜欢的菜肴调味.  

但是，随着时间的推移，它会变得更大，超出原来的空间.  

当这种情况发生, 人们开始剪迷迭香, which is stressful for the 植物 和 contributes to sections of branches dying.

对于那些不喜欢正式装扮的人来说，修剪迷迭香会是你的第一反应. 但, the problem with rosemary is that they don’t respond well to severe pruning.

所以, 在这种情况下, it’s best to pull out the old rosemary 和一个dd a new one, which will provide beauty for several years.

迷迭香对冲

To avoid having to remove 和 replace rosemary too often, allow them plenty of room to grow to their mature size.

红丝兰(小花Hesperaloe parviflora)

红丝兰因其多汁性而备受珍视, 类似观赏草的绿叶和珊瑚花, 从春天到秋天.

一旦它已经生长了七年或更长时间，红色丝兰可能会淹没景观视觉. 如果它生长的区域不是很大，这一点尤其正确.

Occasionally, some people will try to remove the outer leaves at the base. 然而, this is laborious 和 only serves to stimulate red yucca to grow back faster.

在这种情况下，我告诉人们，他们的植物有一个美好的生活，但是时候重新开始了.

新栽的红丝兰

你可能会想，为什么要用那些七到十年后就需要更换的植物呢?

Well, all three of these 植物s add beauty to the l和scape 和一个re low-maintenance.

另一种思考方式是将你的景观与你的家庭内部进行比较.  你是否每隔几年就会对家里的装饰做些小改动，让它看起来清新诱人? 外部也是如此.

在7年或更长时间之后更换一些工厂并不昂贵. 你不觉得这些植物给你的户外空间带来的美丽让它们值得吗?
