Your bushes can bloom from later winter to fall and be gorgeous all year long. See the list of my favorite easy-to-grow bushes which require no maintenance. For 20 years I lived in Philadelphia and had a shady and sunny garden which bloomed 12 months a year with little or no maintenance. You, too, can do this. It seems almost unbelievable, but in one year you can have fun and watch your easy garden grow. SELECT A QUICK AND EASY GARDEN STYLE to match your needs. Decide what you want to do in your garden, look at the physical layout and shape of your garden, choose the color and texture of your flowering bushes and plants by following the easy steps presented in 116 pages. PREPARE THE SOIL or use the raised bed designs which do not require digging. I even used raised beds for my azalea bushes as my mountain soil is too rocky. SELECT THE BUSHES AND PLANTS by growing season so that you can have flowers blooming most of the year in the shade or sun. Each year they will grow, bloom and die back on their own. Do the work one year and reap the harvest for many years to come. PLANT YOUR FLOWERING BUSHES so that few weeds can grow, water them the easy way and enjoy your slice of Heaven. Do the work one year and reap the benefits for many years to come. Learn about selecting, planting and enjoying bushes as they become beautiful every year with their blossoms, colorful leaves and berries.
