Just because you don't have a lot of time and money to put into landscaping, doesn't mean you cannot have a beautiful and enjoyable garden.
A beautiful garden can be a great thing to come home to after a day at work. A ragged, weed-filled garden begging for your time and effort can be a drain on your patience. The key to having the first type welcome you home and not the second is planning. Just like any other kind of garden, a low maintenance garden will take some thought and research. The surest way to get a high maintenance garden is to simply grab any seed, bulb, or bloom that strikes your fancy.
Plants have reputations that proceed them. It is no secret that certain plants need a lot of care and others do not—but do you know which ones are which? Have you calculated how much time you spend you spend mowing the lawn and how much is spend trying to get grass to grow in those shady trouble spots? There are solutions. With a quick look into low maintenance gardening, you can be on your way to a more beautiful garden and more free time to enjoy it.
