 Sean Zarinegar founded Phoenix-based American Housing
Income Trust, Inc., a real estate investment company with a
focus on the acquisition and management of single-family
properties where he serves as the CEO and chief financial
officer. Outside of his professional responsibilities, Sean
Zarinegar enjoys gardening and tropical landscaping. The list
below includes tips for tropical landscaping.
1. Dig a square hole for tropical trees. Instead of digging a
round hole, dig a square one double the length, depth, and
width of the planting pot in which the tree arrives. Circular
holes may encourage roots to grow around the edges of the
hole in a spiral pattern, which can create a weak foundation.
However, a square hole will encourage the roots to grow
outwards and continue to spread out.

3. Tropical Landscaping
 2. Use root nutrients when planting. Consider spending a
little extra money on root-boosting ingredients to help your
plants grow strong and healthy. You can purchase a premade
mixture or create your own by mixing the individual
ingredients yourself.
3. Avoid planting the tree too deep. Because plants like
tropical trees possess feeder roots that need access to mulch
and compost on the surface, resist the urge to plant tropical
plant trees and large shrubs too deeply. Try to keep these
roots three to four inches above ground surrounded by a pile
of nutrient-rich mulch and compost.
4. Create a watering regimen. Different plants may require
different watering schedules, and some tropical plants require
less watering than desert shrubs or common annual flowers.
Learn the watering needs of each plant in your care and
establish a watering routine that takes weather and season
changes into account.
