There are some plants that are slow growing and may not need as much water as other plants. Slow-growing plants can be placed in a soil mix that is heavier than usual, in order to provide more support and help the plant grow.
Plants that have dense foliage can help to shade other plants, keeping them cooler in the summer. Some examples of plants with dense foliage are yews, elms, and oak trees.
Native plants often have unique qualities that can enhance your garden, such as different pollination abilities or resistance to pests and disease. When researching native plants, be sure to look for those that are naturally adapted to the region in which you plan to grow them.
The sun is slowly sinking behind the horizon, casting an orange and red glow across the sky. The light is so beautiful and calming, it's hard not to take in all of the awesomeness before you. Relaxing in nature can be incredibly therapeutic, and a great way to connect with your own inner peace. Watching the sun go down always brings a kind of peace that I just can't deny. Whether I am out tending to my garden or simply sitting on the porch relaxing, a sunset or moonlight always refreshes me and makes me feel sentimental.
Creating an even more organized garden can be done with colored labels or even color-coding. This will help you plan your crops and flowers in advance, which can make gardening a lot easier.
Your garden should be divided into different areas in order to provide privacy and to make it easier to care for. You can use evergreen or stone pathways as natural dividers between different areas of the garden. This will help keep the garden looking tidy and organized, and it will also provide a beautiful focal point for your outdoor space.
