Avoid these
Planting in June and hoping
New plants need months of mild weather to root in before facing 45°C. Anything planted in early summer starts its life in survival mode and usually loses. Hold planting projects for October and spend the summer months fixing irrigation and soil instead — the plants you buy then will cost the same and actually live.
Letting crews over-trim your palms
The carved 'pineapple' look, where healthy green fronds are stripped away, weakens palms, reduces fruit and invites pests. Green fronds are the tree's engine. Instruct any crew to remove only brown and dying fronds and never to cut above the horizontal line of the crown, and be suspicious of anyone who argues.
Laying new turf straight onto old ground
Paspalum rolls dropped onto compacted, salty or debris-filled ground will green up for a fortnight and then fail in patches. Proper re-turfing includes stripping the old surface, adding a layer of clean sweet soil, levelling, and verifying sprinkler coverage before the first roll goes down. If a quote does not mention soil preparation, it is a quote for a temporary lawn.
Frequently asked questions
When should I water my garden in summer?
Before dawn, finishing between 4am and 6am. Watering at midday loses a large share of every litre to evaporation, and evening watering leaves foliage wet overnight, which encourages fungus in humid months. In peak summer most lawns need this daily; beds on drip can often run slightly less frequently but for longer.
Will real grass actually survive a UAE summer?
Yes, if it is the right species with working irrigation. Seashore paspalum is the standard choice because it tolerates heat and salty or TSE water; Bermuda is the tougher, higher-maintenance alternative. What kills lawns is not the heat itself but irrigation gaps — a broken sprinkler head in July shows up as a brown patch within days.
What is the difference between drip irrigation and sprinklers, and which do I need?
Sprinklers (pop-ups) spray over an area and are right for lawns; drip lines deliver water directly to each plant's roots and are right for beds, hedges, trees and pots. Most well-designed gardens use both on separate zones. Drip loses far less to evaporation, but its emitters clog with limescale and need flushing a few times a year.
How do I know if my palm has red palm weevil?
Watch for wilting or collapsed fronds at the crown, holes in the trunk oozing sap or fibre, chewed material around the crown, and sometimes a rustling sound from inside the trunk. Weevil kills palms from the inside and spreads, so treat any suspicion as urgent: get a professional assessment quickly, because early injection treatment can save a palm that late discovery cannot.
Where can I buy plants cheaply, and does it matter where they were grown?
Dubai's Warsan plant souq offers the widest retail selection; the nursery belts along Sharjah's Al Dhaid road and around Al Ain are cheaper still. Provenance matters a lot: locally acclimatised plants have already survived UAE sun and water, while greenhouse imports often fail in their first summer. Ask where stock was grown before buying.
