As the warm weather rolls in, it’s the perfect time to revitalize your gardens! Whether you’re starting fresh or enhancing your existing landscape, the right plant combinations can bring joy and beauty to your outdoor spaces.

In my garden, I focus on deer-resistant and rabbit-resistant plants like boxwood and butterfly bush. Most of my selections are also drought-tolerant beauties, such as the stunning Summertime Blues Vitex—ideal for those hot summer months! While I occasionally indulge in some high-maintenance choices like roses (for full transparency!), I value the simplicity of low-maintenance gardening. 🌿✨

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by endless plant options and dream of a garden that thrives with minimal care, you’re in the right place! 🙌💚 In this video, I’ve compiled a fantastic list of low-maintenance plants that are perfect for busy gardeners or anyone seeking a more relaxed approach to gardening. These gem plants not only enhance the beauty of your garden but also thrive with little to no effort—no constant fertilization, pruning, or deadheading required!

  1. Hello to a fellow Gardening Girl! I love all of the plants you showed us🩷🌿Do you mind me asking what zone you garden in? I’m in South Georgia, zone 8b. In summer, it’s often hot & humid.

  2. Great video. I am always looking for flowers that are easy to take care of. I do have sedum in pots and they are great also for dried flower arrangements.

  3. Love sedums, thank you for your practical plant information for our dry hot summers. I needed this information because I live in zone 8a.

  4. Great choices! These would make a great low maintenance pollinator garden. That's what I would like. Thank you. Just found your channel. I am in NW Alabama.

  5. Hello from new subscriber on zone 9b. I'm taking serious notes 😊 I have a slope that with minimal water access. Hoping many listed will work and help w erosion too.

  6. 很少有园艺频道标注植物适合的栽种耐寒区域,甚至标注品种名称的都很少。
    你的频道做到了这两点,我觉得很好 。
    我赞成用宿根和球根花卉打造低维护花园。

  7. I totally agree with everything on this list! Such a good variety listed! The one thing to consider with these plants is that almost all of these are herbaceous perennials so they will all die back in the winter leaving the garden quite empty in the winter. That's the problem I'm trying to fix now. Adding evergreen interest. Thanks for the great video!

  8. Thank you for speaking in a moderate, slower tone. Easy to follow along. Some of us have a hearing impairment. I enjoyed your video!

  9. Thanks for this video! Love coneflowers and yarrow in my garden. Both are tenacious and gorgeous.

    I wanted to share that barberry is considered a tick magnet, especially for lyme carrying ticks, and is invasive in most areas of the US. I do not recommend planting it based on what i have learned. I wish garden centers would stop selling it :/
