Landscaping a garden is one way of designing the house. It is an enjoyable way
of making the exterior part of the house look beautiful. However, problems may
arise in maintaining the landscaped garden.
The following are effective solutions that will help maintain a landscaped
garden and provide solutions to problem areas:
1. If the garden is too rocky, the rocks may be used as a design that will
create a beautiful rock garden. Putting the excess rocks together to create a
slope will add a natural look in the garden. The slope that was formed with the
rocks will keep the garden from looking flat and unattractive
2. If the problem is too much sunlight in the garden that causes drought, a
solution for is to use plants that are low maintenance and can be planted even
in direct sunlight. The plants will survive even when there is less water or too
much sunlight.
3. Another maintenance solution if the place has too much sunlight is to plant
shade trees at the corners of the garden. This will keep sensitive plants away
from direct sunlight and will help keep the soil moist. Regular watering should
be continued if needed.
4. Sometimes the garden becomes too shady which causes difficulty in growing
certain plants. The solution for this is to choose plants that can survive even
in the shade.
5. If there are weeds or unwanted plants growing in the garden, they should be
pulled. You must pull the weed and its roots to prevent the weed from growing
back. Trimming and cutting the weeds will only give temporary results. It is
best to pull everything out to prevent the return of the problem.
These are just common solutions to some problems encountered in maintaining a
landscaped garden. To keep the maintenance an easy job, it is recommended that
you tend the garden regularly. This will prevent small problems from getting
bigger and more difficult to handle. If the landscaped garden is well
maintained, the plants and trees will last a long time and will save money as
you will not have to buy new plants or accessories.
