Annual plants are a hassle because you have to replant every season. By contrast, perennials only require one planting session. Because they grow back naturally each season, you can enjoy watching them grow without the heavy lifting. When picking perennials for your garden, make sure you choose native plants acclimated to your climate. Of course, make sure you plant according to the&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/planthardiness.ars.usda.gov\/PHZMWeb\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">USDA Plant Hardiness Zones<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.

As gardener Peter Weeks writes in&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailygardener.com\/how-often-mow-lawn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Daily Gardener<\/span><\/em><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, most people mow their lawn once a week. This task is exhausting and time-consuming. To reduce the square footage of your yard that requires mowing, consider planting ground covers. These plants sit close to the earth and spread out across your landscape. Not only will they replace grass as a lawn cover, but they also add color and interesting texture. Further, they do not require frequent watering. Although typical ground covers like succulents cost more than grass seeds in the short term, they&#8217;ll save you both money and energy in the long run.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Try Xeriscaping Techniques<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/landscaping-forbes.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13518\" width=\"555\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/landscaping-forbes.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/landscaping-forbes-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/landscaping-forbes-768x430.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px\" \/><figcaption>Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/lenakatz\/2018\/06\/30\/is-xeriscaping-for-you-the-fundamentals-of-low-water-landscaping\/#6fa079d62ab3\">Forbes<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you don&#8217;t live in a dry climate, you may not have heard of&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.org\/encyclopedia\/xeriscaping\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">xeriscaping<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. This low maintenance landscaping practice involves selecting plants that require little to no irrigation. In desert areas with sparse rainfall, this practice is perfect for creating a low-maintenance yard. Xeriscaping is also beneficial to the environment, as it reduces water waste and creates a more sustainable landscape. Even if your climate is humid, you can still borrow xeriscaping techniques to build a low maintenance garden. For example, try choosing hardy,&nbsp;<\/span><a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sunset.com\/garden\/flowers-plants\/water-wise-plants#low-water-plants_46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">water-wise plants<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&nbsp;such as aloe or Pride of Madeira. While you&#8217;re planting, replace the surrounding grass with rocks and mulch&#8211; a common xeriscaping practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In comparison to grass, mulch is lower maintenance, provides natural fertilizer, and chokes weeds. To further reduce water waste, ditch the watering can, and install irrigation systems under the soil. With this tool, water travels directly to your plants instead of scattering across the leaves. This way, you aren&#8217;t using a drop more than necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Group Plants Wisely<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/grouping-plants-pinterest.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13519\" width=\"554\" height=\"368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/grouping-plants-pinterest.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.lakehomes.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/grouping-plants-pinterest-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 554px) 100vw, 554px\" \/><figcaption>Photo courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/210543351311262882\/\">Pinterest<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When designing subsections of your garden, it&#8217;s tempting to focus solely on aesthetics.

While there&#8217;s nothing wrong with prioritizing beauty, grouping plants based on similar needs is an easy gardening hack to create a low maintenance garden. Specifically, try groupings based on specific growing conditions like sunlight need, shade requirements, and tolerance of wet and dry soil. This easy shortcut will simplify the maintenance process, and you&#8217;ll always be able to remember which areas of your garden need more care than others. Once you&#8217;ve grouped plants according to these conditions, then you can focus on looks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We hope these tips will help with your low-maintenance landscaping practices.
