If you've got a small yard and would like an easy but professionally maintained garden, you only need two things - resolution and understanding. These are some pointers about the way to keep your garden by the yard looking sharpened up and glamorous. Deadheading Keep your border free from shriveled flowers and dried leaves. Deadheading or removing dead flower heads will spur the plants to provide more blooms for longer. Many evergreens like geraniums and dahlias, and some annuals benefit from having spent blooms removed. Pinch out tops.

Before you start working in your garden, purchase a wheelbarrow and a good kneeling stool. Nitrogen is water soluble and over time will dissolve and get washed away. You will need to apply the soap liberally and frequently until you have rid the plant of all pests. Buy some quality topsoil from a nearby plant nursery with the suitable acidity and mineral content for the type of plant you are growing.
