Trees
Stone fruit trees such as peach, apricot, and some cherries as well as several other varieties—almond and pistachio in particular—do well in hot climates. Scattering trees among shrubs and groundcover is a good way to add shade and beauty.
Drip Irrigation
Changing water wasting, above ground sprinklers with drip irrigation can save hundreds of gallons of water each month. Drip irrigation delivers water to individual plant roots through an underground network of tubes or pipes.
We look forward to meeting with you to assess your landscaping needs. Please callus at (858) 332-4112 fora free consultation.

Dear Mr. Grigson,
The Graphic Artist job you posted today on Craigslist immediately caught my eye. My skills and experience as a first rate designer—especially with print, advertising, and web graphics—combined with my abilities as a creative copywriter would make mean invaluable asset to your team.
With my current freelance customers and in my previous positions as the primary design resource within a company, I have served as an integral member of tight-knit groups. I thrive in an atmosphere where I am called upon to produce effective branding, advertising, and collateral materials for print, trade shows, and web formats. I am excited about the prospect of joining a firm such as MarkeTrends because of its reputation as an innovative and trendsetting organization, which meshes with my approach to design.
After you’ve had a chance to examine the attached visual and traditional resumes, I’d like the opportunity to meet with you in person to show you how my positive attitude can help MarkeTrends attain its goals. I am available to talk at (XXX-XXX-XXXX) or via email at
(G.Fried@gmail.com).
Sincerely,
Gary Fried
(XXX-XXX-XXXX)
