Embrace a multi-species philospophy.By multi-species, I mean lots of different kinds of plants in your lawn.
And by native plants, I mean weeds.This is a lawn philosophy that’s being adopted more and more by modern gardeners and landscape designers lately and that’s because it really works.Weeds have the ability to tolerate and thrive in the exact kind of climate you live in as they’re completely native and designed exactly for where you live.
They stay green almost no matter what and, while they may seem unsightly on smaller city lots, they really aren’t that noticeable when they’re filling in the blanks in a large field-like setting.Well, except for those 2 weeks a year when the dandelions are in bloom, but other than that, it’s green city.
And if I’m being honest, those 2 weeks are my favorite anyway.
spending hours and hours trying to find and attack every single one of those 18 million weeds on your property this year.It really was a quick and painless project.
I added in some simple ceramic knobs to finish if off..I let it dry for a few hours, then I came back to it.
Before you can start drawing on your chalkboard, you need to “season” it.This basically means that you rub chalk all over it and then you smear it around with a rag really quickly.
