AUTOMATIC WATERING IN THE CONTEMPORARY GARDEN

In GALANTUS gardens, landscape design never ends with just a planting plan or a beautiful view out the window. A modern garden is a living, constantly growing environment where every detail matters, even water.


WATERING IN GARDEN DESIGN

When we imagine a contemporary garden design, we most likely see a natural, nuanced landscape with perennial plantings, ornamental grasses, lush shrubs, and a lush green lawn. A garden where you want to relax, not spend evenings with a hose in your hands. That is why an automatic watering system has long become an integral part of modern garden design.

 


To keep your garden healthy, dense and visually harmonious throughout the season, it needs regular and precisely dosed moisture. A professionally designed automatic watering system ensures a steady supply of water exactly where it is needed.


SUN, SHADE AND PLANT COMPATIBILITY

Garden design and irrigation system planning are carried out simultaneously with other technical solutions. Already at the garden design stage, separate irrigation zones are planned for different plant groups. Lawns require more intensive and uniform watering, while drip irrigation is often used in perennial beds and shrub plantings near the root zone. Individual water supply can be provided for individual trees or solitary plants.


It is imperative to adjust watering zones to the sun's path. One watering line cannot simultaneously cover both sunny and shady areas of the garden, as each requires a different amount of water and watering regime. Properly distributed watering zones help keep plants healthy and ensure even garden development throughout the season.

One of the most important principles in quality garden design is plant compatibility. In one planting group, we select plants with similar requirements for moisture and growing conditions. This allows us to precisely adjust the watering regime and, in the long term, obtain strong, healthy plants with a stable root system.

 

TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS

In no GALANTUS garden project is automatic watering an accidental addition. It is an essential part of landscape architecture, affecting both the visual quality of the garden and the sustainable development of plants. When designing gardens, GALANTUS entrusts the technical design of irrigation systems to Hunter's representative in Latvia, Santeko.



Automatic watering is an integral part of modern garden design. New automatic watering systems are convenient and easy to manage. They can be controlled remotely by using a phone app, maintaining full control over the watering of your garden even when you are away from home.


A good garden is never just a beautiful planting. It is thought out down to the very roots.

We wish you lush, healthy, and vibrant gardens!
