Welcome to YARDENERS PLANT HELPER

This yard care database is assembled for
"Yardeners" - folks who own a house with a lawn,
some trees and shrubs, and maybe some flowers.
They want to take care of the plants in their
yard, but gardening is not a hobby, and probably
never will be. That is the call of the oppressed
yardener who has little time to do all the things
in his or her life that need to be done.

Caring For The Soil In The Landscape The
majority of the soil in American home landscapes
is poor. Over 70 of American homes, according to
our estimation, have lawns, trees, and shrubs
that are growing in poor soil. Yardeners desire
a beautiful landscape, but we also want them to
understand that poor soil also poses a financial
challenge. A significant portion of the time and
money required to maintain the landscape can be
saved by having good, healthy soil. The health
and look of trees and shrubs are simultaneously
enhanced by having good soil, which raises the
home's resale value. This document aims to
persuade Yardeners to incorporate soil care into
their long-term yard care plans a little more.

• Lawn Care For Yardeners
• Almost everything Americans do to maintain their
  lawns harms their lawns in the long run. does
  that make sense at all? Almost everything you
  need to know to have a lovely low-maintenance
  lawn is covered in these files, and much of it
  will be different from what you are doing now. We
  separate the jobs into two categories those that
  are common to most lawn programs and those that
  are intended to improve the appearance of a lawn.

Yard Care Techniques for Yardeners and
Gardeners This section discusses some of the
general methods or strategies that some yardmen
might choose to use. We believe that proper soil
maintenance and mulching are essential for a
healthy yard ecology.However, we have covered
every aspect of yard care techniques and there
are still more.

• Fertilizing The Landscape
• Watering The Landscape
• Mulching In The Yard
• Yard Waste Management
• Composting
• Growing Plants In Containers

• Essential Steps For Success
• Ecology is the study of interactions between
  organisms and their surroundings. Important and
  dangerous ecological problems include global
  warming, air pollution, water pollution, and
  invasive foreign plant species. Although we as
  individuals might not be able to directly address
  these global challenges, we think that each of us
  can at least try to learn about the ecology of
  our own backyard, and if we spot an ecological
  issue, we might be able to take action. America's
  yards as a whole have a significant impact on the
  nation's overall ecological health.Everything you
  need to succeed is at your disposal.

• Yardeners are typically reluctant to try growing
  any vegetables, fruits, or berries because they
  believe it to be too challenging and
  time-consuming. While we don't recommend
  beginning with a sizable backyard orchard and a
  huge vegetable garden at once, we do suggest you
  try a few vegetables and perhaps a few culinary
  herbs. You'll find that growing some delectable
  vegetables is not difficult when you start out
  cautiously, and when you know what you're doing,
  it takes only a short amount of time.Everything
  you need, from a basic guide to creating sprouts,
  is available covered here.

• Houseplants
• I believe gardeners typically don't have many
  indoor plants. Most indoor plants we've tried to
  grow have died on us, generally because we
  neglected to water them. Unbeknownst to us, we
  frequently placed the plant in an unsuitable
  location for light. The unknownHere too, we've
  got you covered.
