Mistakes to avoid
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.
Never touching the irrigation controller after handover
A garden running its winter schedule in July is being underwatered by half; a summer schedule left running in January drowns roots and breeds fungus. The controller schedule should change at least four times a year. If you do not know how yours works, have a technician walk you through it once — it is a ten-minute lesson.
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.
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.
When is the right time to trim date palms?
The main trim is late summer into autumn, after the July–September harvest, removing spent fruit stalks, dead fronds and the fibrous skirt. A lighter tidy in spring is fine, and if you do not want fruit at all, having flower stalks cut in spring prevents a summer of dropped dates. Only brown or dying fronds should ever be removed — stripping green growth weakens the palm.
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.
When is planting season in the UAE?
October to March. Planting in this window gives roots months of mild weather to establish before the first summer, which is when badly timed plants die. Summer is for maintenance only — watering, light pruning and pest checks. If you arrive mid-year, resist planting until October; spend the interim fixing irrigation instead.
How do I book a gardener without getting wildly different quotes?
You will get different quotes — that is the market — so the goal is comparing them on the same scope. Photograph the garden, count the palms, note the plot size and list the tasks, then put that identical brief to several vendors. In the tamam app you can see multiple verified garden vendors with AED ranges, book and pay in-app, and rebook the same crew if the first visit goes well.
