Money Saving Tip - Landscaping

Today's great money saving tip is....

Landscaping:

If you are planning on doing some landscaping or just creating a
nice flower garden area, shopping for plants, can be expensive
even when they are on sale. Before you go out and start
spending, look around your yard to see if you have existing plants
that can be split or that you can get starts from.

Additionally, if you have a good relationship with any of your
neighbors, you might ask them if they have any plants you could
use as a starter. Perhaps you could work out a trade, so that both
of you will have more to plant without spending any extra money.

Another great idea is the next time you plan to purchase a
lawnmower, look for one that mulches leaves. This way, rather
than spending a small fortune on prepackaged mulch for your
flowerbeds every year, you can simply use the mulch you make.
