Your kids may have all the fun in the world with your overgrown yard, but the carb appeal may beg to disagree. With a little landscaping tip and magic, you can still achieve a unique jungle look from the overgrown yard. Here are some tips on how to go about it. Making a plan, and especially if you choose the DIY route will be the first step here. This includes thinking about what you really want like the garden type, what you are looking to achieve and you can get such idea from the internet and garden magazines.
The next thing after the planning is the budget, because the gardening supplies are not free and you may also have to hire for professionals. Since you may need to hire professionals for something, not to mention the gardening supplies, the next thing will be the budget. This whole plan and budget should have everything and anything that you plan on bringing to the yard from the stepping stones to the bird baths, from the garden beds to the benches and any other gardening components. It will be now time for the actual work and the first thing here will be to clean the backyard and remove all the debris like the dog poop, the broken bricks and cement, the chipped paints and the garden furniture that you want to get rid of. The old and rotten trees should also go here, because they are not only not so good to the eye but also a real safety hazard. You can call the junk removal professionals or you can buy trash grabbers and bags, and a wheelbarrow and do it by yourself. The overgrown yard will be full of the pesky weeds and when you are done getting out the trash, you will then get to these and this may be a while. Bindweeds, Canada thistle, poison ivy, garden mustard, yellow nutsedge creeping Charlie, nightshade, dandelion weeds and the buckthorn are among the weeds that you should focus on first, because you cannot go out there pulling everything out even the ones that can be beneficial for your garden.
Overcrowding prevents plants to be in their best condition and especially the ones that need sunlight, and also can disrupt the root system and this will hinder the proper growth of the garden beds which means that this is the next thing that you should take care of here. The process here will be different from the removal of the weeds, and you therefore instead dig around the ones that you wish to keep, store then in some containers with soil and water safely. The soil should be great for the plants that you wish to have and this is the next thing. You can now plant the trees, bushes and flowers, which you will then give some time to grow before you can then do the dcor so that you can have an idea of what to include there. Remember to get creative with the dcor and also that gardening will be a continuous process and preventive measures so you will not be doing this again should be included.
