Many gardeners dream of creating a garden that requires little maintenance.

There are many recommendations that can make life easier for a garden owner.

But there are categories of errors that can ruin all your work.

Let's listen to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

What Not to Do in a Low-Maintenance Garden

What is not recommended to do.

  1. Planting exotic trees and plants. Even a couple of specimens can significantly increase the work front, complicating garden maintenance.
  2. Lack of a planting plan. You need to be careful when choosing plants. It is also better to think about their combination and evaluate the impact they have on the rest of the garden.
  3. No mulching. Mulch blocks weeds, which means the amount of weeding will be significantly reduced.
  4. There are no ground cover plants. They act as mulch, covering the soil and protecting the earth.
  5. Plants in containers. Such flowers require special care – another increase in the work front.
