ENVIRONMENTALLY COOL
Turning down the thermostat is one of the least efficient, most environmentally demanding ways to cool things off when it is as hot as a blast furnace outside.
As communities lower indoor temperatures in summer, power plants must maximize their output, which leads to the burning of polluting fuels. There is a better way. Instead of switching on air conditioner, try lowering the temperature with some of these simpler, nonmechanical approaches.
Plant deciduous shade trees or trellis-climbing vines around your home to block the sun without expending energy.
Building porches and garages on the sides of your house will also help turn back an invasion of solar heat.
A roof or pergola covering a patio or section of driveway cuts down the amount of heat reflected into a house.
Use only light-colored roofing materials because they will redirect heat than absorb it.
Early maintenance
For the first year or two, especially after a week or so of especially hot or dry weather, watch your trees closely for signs of moisture stress. If you see leaf wilting or hard, caked soil, water the trees well and slowly enough so the water soaks in rather than runs off. This will encourage deep root growth. Keep the area under the trees mulched and free of other plants. Until the trees are deeply rooted grasses and other plants may take up moisture before the trees can get their share.

output – производительность, мощность, отдача; продукция deciduous – листопадный

English Garden
English gardens are renowned for their beauty and splendor. They are found in the grand style in every region. Spacious terraces, water-gardens, palm houses and rose gardens are just some of the beautiful features you will discover. Some private gardens are open to the public on certain days of the year, others open throughout the spring and summer months when you can flowers at their best, but many, particularly the botanical gardens with thousands of species of plants and flowers, are open all year round.
English landscape gardening in its early form was the main utility in function. Vast deer parks surrounded large estate homes and small knot gardens filled with lilies and tulips may be near the house itself. Orchards and kitchen gardens would be planted further away from the home and paths with walls or hedges flanking them. Later, as the middle class implemented their English garden influence, the style became a more relaxed form of garden design. The removal of some of the boundaries and hedges and working the garden into the natural landscape became the foundation of the English garden we know today.
Other influences in the English style are the Palladian architectural style, the Italian use of sculptures in the garden setting as well as the formal French garden style, the uses long lawn vistas. Long lawn views bordered by natural plantings of trees and lush border plantings along natural appearing, but planted trees and shrubs are very typical for this style.
