[quote=Anonymous]This is the PP, I want to make one more case here. It is relatively easy to outsource the maintenance of a lawn and some flower beds with shrubs, maybe some hostas, and a bunch of bare mulch. It is basically impossible to outsource care and maintenance of a native perennial garden unless it’s specifically designed for it, probably by being mostly shrubs and grasses. So that’s fine because you plan to do it yourself, but the year you break your leg is the HOA going to be on your case about how the Monarda has mildew in August even though that’s perfectly normal and can you please cut it back, or that the goldenrod has flopped because you didn’t get a chance to stake it? When people say “as long as it’s tidy and maintained” they are seeing something specific in their mind, and it’s usually mulch and edging. [/quote]
