Do you lack a green thumb? Are you someone who loves to sit outside and soak up the sun but dislikes getting their hands dirty? Do you love the idea of a beautiful garden but aren’t passionate about gardening? Don’t worry; you’re not alone. Believe it or not, there are a lot of people that aren’t blessed with a love of gardening or a green thumb, so if gardening is not your forte, don’t worry because you’re not the only one.
Now, the good news is that even if you’re not a keen gardener, you can still have a gorgeous garden. You could hire a gardener to deal with your gardening needs for you, or if your budget won’t stretch that far, you could find little ways to make your garden an easier space to keep looking spick and span.
Swap to artificial grass
Never have time to mow the lawn, then why not look into getting artificial grass? Sure, it might mean making an investment, but if it makes it easier for your garden to be kept looking nice, then it’s something that’s worth considering. To find out more about having artificial grass installed, it’s a good idea to speak to an expert. It could also be a good idea to look online on sites like the George Hill Timber website, to get an idea of the price tag that artificial grass tends to come with, as well as the different types. It’s also worth finding out how long artificial grass can last and what care it needs if any.
Install sprinklers
To keep your plants looking healthy, installing automatic sprinklers can be a good idea. If you’re prone to forgetting to water your plants, then having sprinklers that come on automatically installed could be a good idea. That way, you don’t even need to worry about watering your plants, all you have to do is set your sprinklers to come on at a certain time each day. How much easier would that be, rather than having to remember to water your plants.
Have decking or patio installed
If you would rather not have to worry about any grass in your garden, artificial or otherwise, opt to have decking or patio installed. The great thing about swapping grass for patio or decking is that the upkeep is much easier, plus it means that you will be able to use your garden all year round, as you won’t have to worry about the grass turning into a mud pit.
Choose easy plants
When it comes to picking plants for your garden, what you want to do is pick ones that are easy to look after. You don’t want to have to be worrying about feeding them at certain times of the year and making sure that they get just the right amount of water. What you want are plants that need a little bit of water, and that’s it, as that way you don’t have to worry about ensuring that you’re giving them the right care.
See, creating a garden that’s easy to take care of is possible, it’s just a case of making smart choices when it comes to how you design your garden, that’s all.
