Remember, the foundation to your landscape is the soil, so plan from the ground up.
Start with soil testing before you begin a new garden.
Ask yourself these questions before you begin a garden:
- Can you can maintain what you plant?
- Know the requirements of the plants you grow--do they need sun or shade, a lot of moisture or dry conditions?
- Are they prone to insects or diseases?
- When does it bloom? Will you need to prune?
