Steps for a low-maintenance yard

While there may be no such thing as a zero-maintenance yard‚ there are steps homeowners can take to ensure outdoor spaces require less upkeep. Share these tips with clients¹:

• Gravel‚ special types of paving or grass-like perennial plants can replace sections of lawn and mulch – and help make yardwork less of a chore.
• Or consider slower-growing lawn options. Certain breeds only require cutting a few times a summer.
• When placed in proper areas with comparable species‚ native plants are another low-maintenance option.

As always‚ I enjoy staying in touch and sharing helpful homeowner advice.
