"Hi I'm Fernando and we are here with Expert Village I'm a landscaper I have been doing this for over 15 years in Los Angeles and today we are going to be going over on how to pick your plants. As you could see this house has been newly renovated and there is no side, no sprinkler system what so ever so what we decided to do is to add irrigation was a rose bush and we add a lot of sod throughout the whole house for a family and left a few of the trees existing had to pull up some. So the most important thing to remember in when picking out your actually trees, bushes, plants is first of all your taste and also what suits the environment for your actually home whether its your in a hot humid climate, your in a dry air climate you always have to think what is best for my land and my area.
