Did you just buy a new home or want your existing home and yard to be the envy of the neighborhood? New Home Garden is here to give you guidelines and help you create the perfect yard. I have been gardening in Texas for over 12 years and am not a professional landscaper but I would like to share with you some of the tips and pitfalls I have had in my personal garden. If you are from Texas, you know how hard it is to have a beautiful garden with the 100 degree weather from July till the end of September, with maybe as little of 3 inches of rain during that time. The upside of Texas gardening you can garden all year around and not to be limited to the 3 months that I had growing up in the Midwest. So this Midwest transplant still wants those beautiful gardens that we see in the garden magazines. With many trials and errors I have accomplished some of these dreams of having a beautiful garden and landscape yard. Gardens I decided, are like us humans, always evolving and changing so there are always projects if you become an avid gardener. At New Home Garden you will find some helpful tips in starting your dream yard, even if it only a small flower garden or doing your whole yard to be your private oasis's. New Home Garden Guide Tips:
One of the biggest mistakes I made in the beginning is not hiring a professional landscape architect. I can here you say, I can't afford that!! That what I thought, but it will save you money in the long run. Many of the professionals will give you a design and charge you from $100 to $500 for just the design if you do not use their landscaping services. I called two or three and picked the one that seem to see my vision . I was honest and told them I would probably just be using their landscape design and doing most of the work myself, or just doing a section at a time because I could not afford to do my whole yard. These pro know the different plants and what grows well in your area and will help give you that beautiful yard. Landscape architects analyze the soil, the hills, water, and the plants that are there. They see where sunlight falls at different times. They also look at existing building, and walkways. Many of the pros have 3D computer generated layouts, which gives you a great picture what your finished landscaping project will look like. Did you know that Landscaping can increase the value of your home by 15% or more?

Before starting your landscaping project look at your
property and its needs and what you want in the finished product. One of the
biggest mistake is making landscaping placement, without a focus. A
scattered approach can lead to costly errors that will have to be redone at
a later date. By coming up with your landscaping ideas before you start,
you'll have a clear path to follow.
