3. Native Plant Garden with Mulched Beds
Overview:
Design your front yard around native plants suited to your climate, reducing maintenance and supporting local ecosystems. Use mulch made from bark or straw to keep weeds down and add texture. Incorporate plants like lavender, sage, ornamental grasses, and coreopsis.
Why it works:
Native plants are hardy and low-maintenance, creating a sustainable landscape that ages gracefully. Mulched beds add a rustic, earthy feel.
