Six project ideas for a kitchen makeover

A

s the hub of activity in a home, the kitchen serves many purposes: meal prep base, dining area, family gathering place, celebration zone, and entertainment center, to name a few. Does your high-use, heart-of-the-home kitchen meet the challenges and needs of your family life?

If not, then it's time for a renovation. A kitchen remodel can be inspired by lifestyle changes, the need for energy efficiency, upgrading of decades-old styling,

or simply that you are ready for a change. The good news is that remodeling the most used room in your house not only improves the space itself, it increases the overall value of your home.

Research from Remodeling magazine shows homeowners who undergo a mid-range kitchen remodel can expect to recoup 81 percent of their spend upon selling their home. A major kitchen remodel will recoup 59 percent, according to the same study.

So what are you waiting for? Start planning your kitchen remodeling

project today. Here are six ideas, ranging from minor to major: • Replace your faucet. For the amount you use your kitchen faucet, functionality and easeof-use should be top priorities—highlighted with stylish designs lines, of course.

• Paint your cabinets. If replacing your kitchen cabinets is not in the budget this year, repainting them is the next best thing. A fresh coat of paint can dramatically change the appearance of your kitchen.

Select a paint that dries hard so it can stand up to wear and tear; choose a satin finish paint to hide imperfections in the cabinet surface. To complete the look, consider replacing the cabinet hardware.

• Add a backsplash. Create an instant wow factor by enhancing the walls above the work areas of your kitchen. The use of varying shapes and materials can really showcase your creative side. Extending the backsplash all the way to the ceiling, with the use of shelving instead of cabinets for storage, is a new trend gaining ground.

• Elevate your faucet. For homeowners who enjoy crafting delectable meals for family and friends, an upgrade can provide the perfect combination of modern functionality and high style.

• Explore sink options. Whether it's for food preparation, dish washing or bathing a small child, families depend on the kitchen sink for a lot of things.

• Change out those cabinets.

While repainting cabinets can change the look of your kitchen, replacing them can totally upgrade the room's core style and functionality. Select new cabinets based on the current needs of your kitchen, considering accessories that can improve functionality.

GET YOUR GREEN ON Planning can reduce water use

BY LAURA NESS

W

e all need more green in our lives. On so many levels, this is true, whether your thoughts turn to leafy kale, a verdant lawn, a pile of cash or saving water. So says longtime sod farmer, Erin Gil, an ardent advocate for green spaces.

APRIL 6, 2018

“Kids need grass,” Gil says.

“They need a surface where they can have fun and not get hurt.

Kids need to get outside more.

Green spaces play a key role in the urban community. They improve people’s lives.”

California’s drought conditions zeroed in on lawns as water guzzlers, and prompted a wave of stone-and-cactus replacements.

In defense of sod, grasses trap dust and dirt, along with atmospheric pollutants like carbon dioxide, hydrogen fluoride and peroxyacetyl nitrate. Grasses also produce oxygen and reduce erosion. According to thelawninstitute.org a 50x50-foot plot of grass produces enough oxygen for a family of four.

Turfgrass also purifies water as it leaches through the root zone down into underground aquifers, which is one of the reasons it’s used to recycle effluent.

Grass also mitigates heat. On a sunny summer day, grass will be 10-14 degrees cooler than

LESS WATER New grass types only need watering every fourth day.

concrete, asphalt or artificial turf. Your feet know what’s good for them.

Sure, grass takes water, but let’s be sensible about it. Says Gil, “Let’s stop the social shaming of lawns.”

Grass Farm raises and sells the most water-efficient and disease- and pest-resistant turfgrass available: It puts down deep roots and only needs watering every fourth day.

When established, it can survive a month without water, and reduces chemical inputs, too.

Gil and his sister, Debbie Barncord are the second-generation owner/operators of Grass Farm in Morgan Hill, established in 1969, along with their sister company, Garden Accents,

in Gilroy. They’ve been providing turf to golf courses, parks, schools, cemeteries and private homes for decades. Garden Accents is filled with patio furniture, fountains, statuary, pottery and plants.

In the end, it’s all about water, says Gil. He urges homeowners to have a water audit performed by the Santa Clara Water District, so they know exactly how much water they are using and where it is going. Being informed drives better decisions.

Gil recommends Western Tree Nursery as a great source of drought-tolerant plants. “Make sure you know how tall a tree or bush will grow,” he says. “Do research on what is required to maintain whatever landscape you are installing.”

Green Nature’s Fidel Salmeron came from El Salvador when he was 15, getting his first job at a golf course in San Jose. He says the most important thing he can do is educate customers. “Drip irrigation offers a 30-percent water savings, and reduces weeds,” Salmeron says.

“You’re delivering water directly to the plant. Smart controllers can save a lot of water, as they

can automatically adjust to the weather.”

As water resources become more precious, the landscaper and grass advocate has nonetheless been persuaded to expand his business to include rocks and dirt—”hardscapes.” Hardscapes are becoming a large part of his business, as people reduce lawns in favor of patios and pavers.

Eric Jardine of Earthworks Landscape has been providing landscape services for 19 years.

“I like working outdoors,” Jardine says. “I love flowers and plants and taking a piece of dirt and turning it into someone’s vision.”

But he says many of his clients also have scaled down yards in favor of hardscapes and garden boxes, with succulents in pots and everything on drip.

“Lighting is huge,” he says. “So is color. People are going for Spanish lavender and salvia and nice ground cover like African daisies: they come in purple, yellow and burgundy and look great on hillsides.”

Owner Ryan Dinsmore of Alpine Landscapes, says that on the corporate campus of Sakata Seed ➝ 12

TERRACE Stone terraces can build erosion barriers.

America in Morgan Hill, his company removed tens of thousands of square feet of existing turf and installed drip irrigation and lowwater-use plants, including: Carex pansa—a popular sand dune sedge Festuca ‘Elijah Blue’—beautiful blue-green ornamental grass that grows in clumps Dietes iridioides—a common blooming ornamental called African Iris Abelia kaleidoscope—versatile variegated foliage that changes color seasonally Nandina domestica ‘Gulf Stream’—compact shrub with yearround color; red in winter Loropetalum chinensis—Chinese fringe flower, a white-flowered broad-leaved evergreen shrub

of the witch hazel family At the Butterfield Self-Storage Facility in Morgan Hill, Alpine Landscapes installed drip irrigation and low water-use plants, with a small 500-square-foot section of turf block for emergency vehicle access.

Alpine is currently landscaping an eight-building, 100-unit housing project in Hollister, where it just completed the installation of exclusively sub-surface irrigation.

Dinsmore says you have to get in the main line and valves, pressurize the system and check for leaks, then put in the plants. The project also requires big bioswales, up to 2,000 feet, filled with grasses for erosion protection.

He says bioswales look simple but are important. “They are meant to keep rainwater on the property and filter out contaminants.”

Some of the common plants for bioswales include Carex pansa, along with: Carex divulsa—tough, versatile and carefree evergreen clumping grass Chondropetalum tectorum— beautiful, clumping, reed-like plant from South Africa Achillea ‘Moonshine’—aka Fern Leaf Yarrow, silver-green foliage and flat yellow flowers Calamagrostis ‘Karl Forester’— the world’s most popular ornamental feather reed grass Sandoval grew up in San Francisco.

COLOR AND FRAGRANCE Planting flowers creates good scents. a career out of it. His day job is implementing the vision of landscape architects. They love color, so he plants a lot of salvia.

His key advice to homeowners and would-be gardeners or landscapers: “Everyone should have Sunset’s Western Garden book,

or get a library card and go borrow a copy.”

When Sandoval goes home to his corner lot in San Juan Bautista, he is immediately enveloped in a garden paradise filled with espaliered fruit trees and edibles from artichokes to asparagus.

He loves experimenting with new plants, especially semi-dwarf and dwarf rootstocks. “Having a garden means bounty: you are always sharing. It goes out in one form, and might come back to you in another. That’s the whole sharing thing. It all goes back to my grandmother. None of this is new.”

Sandoval admits he’s still in awe of planting a seed and watching it grow. Yet he knows his obsession for gardening isn’t for everyone. “I admire the lawnmower jockey on the block—his whole life revolves around that lawn. Whatever you do, you have to own it.”

Ideas to help you grow

COLORFUL ADDITION You don’t need a lot of space to add color and life to the outside of your home.

Gardening provides a hobby that has benefits

G

One of the most exciting parts of gardening is deciding what to grow. With thousands of plants to choose from—flowers, vegetables and herbs—a small pot of soil can be a canvas for creativity.

To find the most popular flowers and plants this year, we checked in with Ball Horticultural Company, a global leader on all things gardening, to see what the top trends are in 2018.

When spring arrives, we all crave color and warmth to celebrate the end of winter. To get that wow factor—and get it fast—try planting flowers that grow and fill in quickly and thrive in extremes.

APRIL 6, 2018

et active outdoors with a hobby more satisfying than binge-watching another television series. As a pastime, gardening can help you eat delicious, more flavorful food while transforming your patio or yard into a colorful hangout for butterflies and bees.

Many people don't realize how easy it is to have a fresh supply of crisp veggies, fragrant herbs or freshgrown flowers. Whether you have a balcony, rooftop or patio, gardening is a hobby that quite literally allows you to harvest big rewards.

The Megawatt Begonia brings magnetic color even in shaded spaces. It's also a low-maintenance option if you're new to gardening. Likewise, the Echinacea Sombrero Sangrita is a perennial flower that returns each year with stunning red blossoms.

Every chef knows the secret to tasty cooking is great ingredients. For many gardeners, the truly magical combination is finding that edible veggie that looks as good as it tastes. Take 2 Combos combine two sweet pepper plants with a touch of heat and beautiful orange and yellow fruit. There's also a combo of a slicer and cherry tomato perfect for small spaces and for snacking and cooking. Speaking of peppers, a new, attractive variety is Candy Cane Red Pepper. It has green fruit striping that ripens to red and offers up crisp, sweet flavors, much like a candy cane!

There are dozens of reasons people choose to garden: fresh food, interior and exterior decoration, relaxation, stress reduction and more. One emerging trend is that people want to make their garden a destination for pollinators like bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. A few captivating flowers that attract these beautiful and helpful creatures are: • Lucky Star Pentas: Provides butterflies summer-long flower clusters in eye-catching colors • Copper Prince Ornamental Millet: This thriller makes a dramatic statement with foxtail plumes that birds feast upon • SuperBlue Lavender: A deeply colorful and fragrant bee magnet Gardening helps you relax and decompress. What's more, there is a huge amount of satisfaction involved in seeing your vegetables and flowers grow. Follow these trends and watch your plants blossom and beautify your home and yard. After all, we could all use a little more color in our lives.

Infuse life into the bath that mimics the sensory experience of a waterfall. Inspired by the strength found in nature, the defined edges of the spout create a balanced aesthetic, while subtle facets offer visual depth. Paired with natural stone accents, this collection evokes elements of natural inspiration.

Neutral calm Light colors such as cool grays and muted blues evoke tranquility and

peacefulness. Neutral colors for walls and fabrics create a soothing aesthetic that fosters relaxation in the space. To create visual interest within a neutral palette, incorporate varying shades of earth tones to serve as complementary accents throughout the room—from decorative rugs and plush towels to cabinetry and tiling.

Nature's inspiration Elements inspired by nature work together to produce a sense of relaxation in the home's oasis. Intuitive in design, the Vettis Bath Collection

by Brizo combines solid proportions and angular architecture with an optional four-sided open chamber

Living accents Natural lighting and live plants blur the line between the great outdoors and the enclosed space. Large floorto-ceiling windows and skylights serve as eye-catching accents while also naturally illuminating the room. Hanging succulents and potted bamboo plants are additional decor options to bring nature indoors without sacrificing clean, simple design.

oday, more than ever, homeowners gravitate toward design elements that transform the bath into a spa-like oasis.

Designers look to incorporate pieces inspired by the natural world to bring renewed energy into the room and create a soothing environment.

From fixtures inspired by booming waterfalls, to neutral color schemes and natural light, nature infuses life back into luxury bath design for a serene sense of calm.

A freestanding stone tub makes a luxurious statement to enhance the spa atmosphere. Sleek, oval architectures provide an organic contemporary touch, while rectangular basins deliver a strong geometric focal point.

Take the spa-like experience even further and incorporate the use of essential oils. Lavender and chamomile reduce stress and encourage sleep, while peppermint and lemon oils increase focus and mental alertness in the morning. From modern to transitional aesthetics, a freestanding, natural stone tub paired with the sensory infusion of essential oils creates the perfect at-home getaway.

many variables. When you're dealing with trees, there's none of that.

Just choose a spot in your yard and you're good to go.

Trees conserve energy in summer and winter, providing shade from the hot summer sun and shelter from cold winter winds. With trees standing between you and the elements, you'll spend less on your energy bill to heat and cool your home.

Trees provide nesting sites, food and shelter for your bird friends.

Hang a feeder in one of the branches and enjoy the birdsong all year long.

A view of trees in urban areas has been proven to reduce stress, anxiety and even the crime rate.

id you know planting a tree is one of the easiest and most powerful things you can do to have a positive impact on the environment?

It's true. Trees clean the air, prevent rainwater runoff, help you save energy and even combat global warming.

With Arbor Day just around the corner in April, there's no better time to give Mother Nature a little TLC. Trees absorb harmful carbon dioxide, odors and pollutants like nitrogen oxides, ammonia, sulfur dioxide and ozone. It's estimated that one tree can absorb nearly 10 pounds of polluted air each year and release 260 pounds of oxygen.

Gardening can be intimidating for newbies because there are so
