Time To Get Planning Your Yard Projects!

Time to get planning your yard projects!

I love when it starts to warm up and I get my yard ready for the summer months ahead. Winter snows and spring wind and ran storms usually leave my yard with some cleanup to be done. That seems to be the first thing on my yard to do list. Next, I like to plan for new plants and gardens. This year we are putting in a veggie garden for us and one for our kids to oversee. One thing I always do before starting any project is to come up with a list of things I need to do.

Before I start putting plants in the ground I do a few things so I don’t run into any issues. I like to sketch out my yard, so I can figure out how much sun and water each area gets naturally. This will help me get the right plants that will thrive in the area I put them. Some areas are better different plants so make sure you know what type of soil you have, how much water they get from your current watering system or if I need to add a sprinkler or drip system.

Once I have a good idea of the best area for my garden I can go plant shopping. Make sure you read every label for the plants, so you know they are right for your yard and needs. I always look to see what type of light they need, how much water each plant requires and how much space they need to grow. Before I started planning my garden out I would just go and buy whatever looked pretty and what I wanted. This usually ended up with a bunch of dead plants. Having a good plan will ensure you have a success and beautiful garden.
