Less is more when it comes to landscaping in an era when water prices are going through the roof. A low-maintenance landscape is just what the gardener ordered for keeping your water and landscaping expenses to a minimum. This will result in you having more time and money, to enjoy the beauty of your property.
- Start by removing lawns from difficult to mow areas such as hills, along streams, in shady areas, etc. Replacing grass in these areas with terraced flower beds, flagstone walkways, or crushed stone beds will still allow for drainage and eliminate a difficult chore.
- You can also enlarge the size of your patio so that it becomes a functional place for entertaining. By adding outdoor firepits, cooking areas, etc., you can create a comfortable place to relax that won’t get soggy when it rains, and won’t overgrow with weeds. You can even ring these areas with raised flower beds to hem them in and define the space. This is a popular option that gives your yard a truly classy appearance.
