Spring is almost here! Time to start landscaping your back yard. This year think about using native plants from your local area.
Native plants typically cost less, use less water, and are easier to care for in their natural environment. Plus, they will make your yard look right at home.
This is great info… thanks!
Definitely require much less work…leaves more time to enjoy the beautiful landscaping you’ve done! Thanks for the tip!
That’s a great idea!
Seeing how I always have something or other that I need to be doing, it would be a great help if i didn’t have to put too much care into my flowers and they will still flourish!
Thank you so much.
One of the best books on this subject is “Bringing nature Home: How You Can Sustain Wildlife with Native Plants” by Douglas W. Tallamy, who is an ecology and entomology professor at the University of Delaware. It’s written for non-scientists, and clearly explains the how-to, and the importance, of building habitat for our native wildlife species via planting native regional plants. This is a great way to save labor and to help replace habitat, so much of which has been lost to development.
Great tip of the week.. although, it isn’t spring right now, it is still a great time to start on your landscaping preparation!
Landscaping is definitely worth the time & effort!
I totally agree with everyone else’s comments! Landscaping is one of the best ways to make your house a home.
