Natural sun protection with Food Fruits like watermelon, guava, grapefruit, and tomatoes are high in lycopene, an antioxidant that has been shown to behave like sunscreen from within, reducing the damaging effects of UVA and UVB rays. The beta-carotene in carrots and sweet potatoes can help protect you in a similar way, and even dark chocolate (70 percent cacao or higher) has been shown to have a positive effect on your body’s natural sun protection. This doesn’t mean you can... skip the sunscreen, but any excuse to eat more dark chocolate is a good excuse, right? Our crews are outside in all weather but the most critical time for them is during sunny weather. Covering up is also a good way to protect your skin. Whatever method you use Transformations Landscaping would like you to be safe when enjoying the sun.

Dividing Perennials Perennials are great plants to share with family, friends and neighbours. As landscaping experts we want to share some of our expertise on dividing perennials. When dividing perennials, timing and technique are important. Perennial plants are healthiest and most productive when they have room to spread. We can rejuvenate perennial garden plants by occasionally dividing them. ... Timing is critical! Don’t wait until a plant has become decrepit or monstrous before dividing it. Watch for the early signs: the center of the plant has smaller leaves, fewer flowers, and weaker blooming stalks than the outer edges; or when the plant begins crowding into neighboring plants and areas.

Trees recognize their siblings! Plants can recognize their siblings and give them preferential treatment. When plants share their pots, they get competitive and start growing more roots, which allows them to grab water and mineral nutrients before their neighbours get them. It has been shown that they only do this when sharing a pot with unrelated plants; when they share a pot with family they don't increase their root growth.
