As I mentioned on twitter earlier today, I’m thinking about trying to do a bit of gardening this spring and summer in the tiny yard in front of our house. It’s a small area, with just some grass and a couple of trees at the moment, but I think it could be really pretty with a few flowers and shrubs. This is the first time since living in DC that I’ve had a front yard, so I’m very much a novice gardener. If you have any gardening resources (blogs, books, websites) that you can recommend, I’d very much appreciate it!
I’m thinking I’ll start off with something relatively low-maintenance, and I’d love to add in a few evergreen elements so that the yard isn’t completely bare next winter. Any ideas?
