LOW MAINTENANCE LANDSCAPING

Updated: Jan 30, 2023

Many homeowners who already struggle to find free time in their busy schedules find it impractical to spend several hours per week maintaining a well-kept yard. This is not to argue that a breathtaking landscape paradise cannot be experienced at home. Here are some time-saving landscaping ideas to enable you more time enjoying your backyard vs maintaining it.


TURF OUT THE TURF

If the idea of mowing large sections of lawn on a regular basis seems more effort than it's worth, replace it with:

  • Decorative concrete pathways & patios

  • Add artificial turf, especially around your pool area.


SAVVY GREEN CHOICES

  • If you just can't forgo having grass in your yard, select a slow growing option

  • Consider easy-to-grow and low maintenance shrubs, trees, and perennials to create a worry-free foundation in your landscape.

REDUCE WEED GROWTH

  • Don't disturb soil unless necessary.

  • Apply mulch generously.

  • Use weed mats.

  • Maintain expansion joints in concrete to avoid unwanted weed growth

  • Use a catcher on your lawn mower and blower vac to clean up after mowing

WATER WISE

  • Install an irrigation system

CREATIVE INCLUSIONS

To give your backyard a stylish designer look without the hassle of maintenance include:

  • Decorative screens

  • Colourful pots

  • Planter boxes

  • Water features
