[quote=Anonymous]Gardens are a lot of work. I’ve seen people get in over their head by starting too big, too fast. They are unable to maintain, use the wrong placement and it becomes overgrown and unmanageable. You need to start small, see how things develop and slowly expand. This will take YEARS. There’s an unsightly front lawn garden in my neighborhood because the home owner thought it was enough to just throw natives on the front lawn. No thought was given to the full size of the plant at maturity and it was not well thought out. Now a new homeowner is struggling with it and has done nothing to correct the placement issue. A front lawn garden can be beautiful. Check out Lucinda Hutson’s Texas garden. Planning and continued maintenance is key. Don’t be fooled into thinking a native garden will be set it and forget it.[/quote]
