Ornamental Grass
Grasses are not often given the credit they deserve. They bring year-round shape and texture to your yard, they can thrive in a vast range of temperatures and environments, and they can grow in (and improve) almost any type of soil. Many grass varieties are drought-tolerant and can also prevent soil erosion and water runoff. They’re incredibly easy to care for, come in all shapes and sizes, and require very little maintenance. Grasses can also help provide shelter for pollinators and other wildlife in your yard–which then increases flowers and fruit yields, too.
Daylily
Daylilies are also great at preventing soil erosion and they spread easily, which helps inhibit weed growth. They’re also versatile and can thrive in many different soil types. Butterflies and hummingbirds are attracted to their blooms, which also brings beauty and brightness to your yard! Daylilies are also incredibly easy to care for and come in many different colors and varieties, so you can choose whatever fits best with your landscape design.
Rock ‘n Low ‘Boogie Woogie’ Stonecrop
This sedum hybrid from Proven Winners is amazingly hardy. It, too, can grow in a vast range of hardiness zones and environmental conditions. It thrives in poor to average soil, little to no supplemental watering, and needs no fertilizer. In addition to being low maintenance, it’s also a cheerful, charming plant! It’s a groundcover plant with green and cream variegated leaves and small yellow flowers. A beautiful addition to any garden bed or planter!
