New homeowner, just sorta winging it...
(lemmy.world)
Having never owned a house or really had a yard of my own, I got pretty excited and decided to do some ad-hoc landscaping. Built some raised beds for vegetables, and just laying in some organic shaped in-ground beds for low water decorative plants. Gonna fill the rest in with gravel. Any pointers?
Please, I beg of you, don't fill in with gravel. It sucks to remove, and it sucks to install, too.
Instead, space out large flat stones and fill the gaps in between with something low-growing like thyme.
Also, be sure not to girdle your trees.
That middle bed that's already done looks great!
