A dry creek handles a common landscape challenge—drainage—with an easy-does-it approach. In some situations, a dry creek simply directs and disperses water that would normally puddle and stand a few days. In other cases, a dry bed transforms into a temporary stream. In the process, it adds beauty to the setting, whether wet or dry. This particular project, we installed a french drain, and dry creek bed to help capture water, and also did some window well work.
The fox valley hasn't received a good rainfall in many weeks making new lawn installs very difficult. Newly seeded lawns should be kept moist at all times until approximately one inch of growth is apparent. In the spring and summer this is best accomplished by watering 2-3 times per day 10-15 minutes each time, preferably early mornings and evening hours. As the lawn becomes established, it will only require one watering per day, approximately 20-30 minutes. Lawn & plants need water to thrive! Please keep this in mind if you have recently installed a new lawn or new plantings during this dry spell.
