5 New Year’s Resolutions for New Jersey Gardeners!

Make 2020 the year your outdoor space will look more beautiful than ever before with the help of these five New Year’s resolutions for New Jersey gardeners. 

Start Composting

A compost bin is really easy to make, and it will completely transform the way you garden. These bins are created to turn recycled plant material into a nutrient-rich supplement for your favorite plants and flowers, helping them to grow faster and stronger. 

Make Your Garden Bug-Friendly 

There are so many reasons to welcome bugs into your yard – bees, in particular. The great news is that you can easily do this by planting flowers that attract these incredible pollinators, such as pansies, milkweed, peonies, lavender, and marigolds. 

Plant Something Different 

Have you been planting the same things for years now? 2020 is the perfect opportunity to change things up a bit and try your hand at planting something new. You never know – it may become the highlight of your outdoor space!

Conserve Water

Every gardener in New Jersey, and the United States as a whole, should endeavor to use less water. You can do this by collecting rainwater in barrels and investing in a sprinkler system with a timer. Soaker hoses are another wonderful option as they are designed to help reduce run-off. 

Hire Professional Landscapers 

Professional landscapers can aid you in not only maximizing on your outdoor space, but also in planting the right kinds of plants and flowers that are sure to thrive in the New Jersey climate. They can help you to transform your yard into the haven you have always hoped it would be for 2020.
