Use greenery in front of your house or along walkways to draw attention to your home. Trim trees and bushes to complete the yard’s new look.
Perennial plants and flowers make a garden look better with age because they come back every year, although some are limited to a few years. Choosing the right plants for your garden and keeping them growing year after year is what makes perennial gardening such an enjoyable journey for a gardener.
Some of the most beautiful flowers are annuals. These include pansies, petunias, impatiens, and marigolds, which will add brilliant colour to your garden.
Trees, shrubs, and vines are necessary to help give a garden architecture. They also add colour and texture with their foliage. You can also attract birds and butterflies with the right shrub selection such as hydrangea or dogwood, which will in turn help pollinate and seed your flower selections, improving the overall health of your garden.
Groundcovers are also a great resource, they can carpet or edge a garden as well as lead you along a path.
