Default I am New.

"Tiffany Bastian" wrote in message ...
Hello Everyone,
I am new and from Connecticut, We just moved here a month ago. Into a
new home we have no lawn or anything because the house was just
renovated. We have some seriou seeding to do soon, we are trying ot
figure out where we will garden etc... it is a lot of fun, we have such
a large blank canvas. I am curious what you all know about lawns too, We
have a some what rocky construction site are for a front yard. I know we
need to get most the rocks out before we seed but any other good ideas?
Also, we are trying to figure out what plants grow good in this climate
since we just moved here.
Thanks for all your help!

Why don't you reserve an area for planting trees for shade and
landscape. I would suggest native deciduous trees and evergreens. Then
beds for perennials and annuals. With that large yard, some portion
might even be reserved for vegetables. Lawns are relatively
high-maintenance and "unnatural" and I would not opt for one, unless
your house (architecture) and family (children and dog?) really want
one.
