[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Think about maintenance. If you will be doing mowing and weeding yourself instead of outsourcing, look for a relatively small, flat yard! Ours is not even that big (.25 acre) but it's hilly, and a pain to maintain as we are currently doing all the housework and yardwork. We are close to either paying for a cleaning service or a lawn care service. And we don't even have kids yet! [/quote] Put some of that weed block fabric down in your flower/shrub areas and cover with mulch. That'll help to cut down on the weeding.[/quote] ... and it will be a big mess a few years down the road when the mulch on top of the fabric has started to form a nice growing medium and weeds will actually grow on top of the fabric as well as through it. Landscape fabric as weed blocker is a terrible idea.[/quote] Weeds do grow on the fabric but they are much easier to pull. You don't need to dig them up.[/quote]
