With some planning, you can have an attractive, colorful and fragrant yard that is easy to maintain and doesn’t use much water.
- Less grass means less mowing and fertilizing.
- Trees with small lacy leaves, such as Honeylocusts, provide shade in the summer and easy clean-up in the fall.
- Many shrubs provide color, texture and fragrance and require little maintenance beyond occasional pruning.
- Some perennials require ongoing removal of dead flowers. If you're not willing to spend that much time in your garden, select a less demanding plant.
