What is the most low-maintenance landscaping?
Opt for low-maintenance ground covers Ground covers like creeping thyme, clover, or sedum are excellent alternatives to grass. These plants are drought-tolerant, require minimal mowing, and add texture and color to your landscape. Lawn alternatives and hardy groundcovers use less water than a traditional lawn, attract pollinators, benefit insects and songbirds, create year-round interest and support a lower maintenance gardening approach. Examples of suitable species include microclover, yarrow, creeping thyme and fescue grasses.
