Low-Maintenance Gardens
Beautiful beds that do not demand weekends: tough plants, smart mulch, steel edging and drip irrigation.
The details, in plain English.
Some people love gardening, and some love a beautiful yard they do not have to work on. Low-maintenance gardens use durable plants, well-chosen spacing, clean edging and mulch that suppresses weeds.
We pick plants that handle heat, drought and humidity, add drip irrigation or soaker lines and design so mature plants fill in without crowding.

Questions, answered
Is low-maintenance the same as no-maintenance?
No garden is zero-care, but a well-designed one needs only occasional pruning, mulch and checks.
Can low-maintenance gardens still have color?
Yes. Many tough perennials and shrubs bloom for months with little attention.
