The Top Tips for Low Maintenance Gardening
A nicely
maintained garden looks amazing and it makes you want to enjoy it more and
more, especially when the weather is so lovely. But maintaining your garden can
be tricky, when you have a busy life. In this blog we go over our top tips for
a low maintenance garden.
Lose the
Lawn
One of the
areas that can look the worst when not maintained is your grass, if left it can
look overgrown and generally untidy. So, the best solution is to get rid of it!
Stylish stones and gravel are really in and require almost no maintenance apart
from a move around now and then to keep it level.
If you are
worried about the loss of colour in your garden, grass could still be an option
but artificial is the way to go. Artificial grass can be pricey but once it is
laid down it then requires minimum maintenance and always looks fresh even in
Winter.
Invest in
Pots and Planters
Covering
your garden in flowers can look great when they are in bloom but once they are
past their best, it’s a big clean up operation. A great way to avoid this is to
invest in Pots and Planters to hold your flowers. They look smart and
sophisticated and can’t grow out of control adding more work than needs to be.
Introduce
Decking
If you have
a big garden a perfect way to reduce fill the space is to invest in decking.
The modern touch will look great in your garden and it’s very easy to keep only
requiring a hose down once it gets dirty. It also provides you with a new seating
area to relax on in summer.
