Want a Lush Modern Meadow Garden?

If you always wanted a meadow garden you may have discovered they can be difficult to achieve.  If you follow some of these suggestions in this article,  you may find that the new modern meadows are pretty easy to achieve.  I have always wanted a garden meadow but usually selected plants that did not perform as well as I hoped they would.   However, this year I will be excited to try some of the plants suggested. Remember, we are a zone 4  or in some areas a  zone 5.   Most of the plants suggested are easy to grow, like Max Frei geranium,  Ornamental grasses, Russian sages,  Joe Pye eupatoriuim, and others.   These modern meadows do not happen in a year, but by year 2 they should be looking pretty good and will flourish in years to come.  A plus benefit is that these plants are pollinators, and great butterfly and bird attractors.  Bear in mind that soil conditions will play an important part of your meadow.  Staff at Trees Today will help you select the plants that will work best in your meadow.
