Landscaping for Wildlife
Landscaping to attract wildlife is gardening at its very best. Choosing plants native to the geographic area where you live almost always guarantees success. Natives require less care and general maintenance, leaving more time for the garden to be enjoyed. Wildlife benefits from the food, shelter, and nesting places that result from this type of gardening.
The more thought you put into planning your garden, the better the outcome will be. Consider the size of your property and the exposure to light and direction. Size is especially important when you are planning to add large trees or shrubs. landscaping-for-wildlife.html#more-7646″ class=”more-link”>(more…)
