Mulching and ground cover plants are excellent strategies for reducing garden maintenance. We’ll discuss how to use mulch to retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil health. Additionally, we’ll recommend ground cover plants like Ajuga and Creeping Thyme, which can reduce the need for weeding and watering while adding color and texture to your garden. - Irrigation Tips:
Efficient watering is key to maintaining a low-maintenance garden. We’ll provide tips on setting up an irrigation system that ensures your plants get the right amount of water with minimal effort. We’ll also discuss the benefits of drought-tolerant plants like certain varieties of Taxus (Yews) and Oak trees, which can thrive with less water, making your garden more sustainable and easier to care for. - Minimizing Pruning and Deadheading:
Some plants require regular pruning and deadheading to maintain their appearance, but others can thrive with little to no trimming. We’ll recommend low-maintenance trees and shrubs like Hicksii Yew and Norway Spruce, which naturally maintain their shape and require minimal intervention. These plants are perfect for gardeners who want to enjoy a tidy garden without constant upkeep.
