Whether you have done it by your own hand or by hired professional to create your garden. The following information should provide some useful gardening tips.

• Place walkways or steeping stones in the garden for easy access and to keep your shoes clean and dry. Cover the soil with a board to kneel while planting. This is to avoid walking on wet clay soil. The footprints compress the soil particles tightly and squeezing out vital oxygen. It’s better to build a hedge, if the path is three feet or more wide.

• Spade compost into lightly moist soil before planting a new garden. Remove weed over the area as you go. Remove its root to prevent the weed from growing back. Just trimming and cutting will give only temporary result. Then break up the soil into small pieces.

• For deep rooted plants like roses need double dig garden to make high performance garden.

• Some places can be highlighted by making a rockery. It’s for the plants which require less water. Cactus is excellent choice for rock garden.

• Grasses like Blue Grass, Fescue, and Rye should be mowed as high as possible. The best is around 2 to 3 inches and no higher. If it’s taller than that, the grass can flop over and if it’s too short, then the grass is more susceptible to weeds

• Plant tress at the corner of the garden to avoid too much sunlight. This will keep plants away from direct sunlight.
