Stunning Low Maintenance Garden Plants I Love Growing
July 9, 2024 - Next year I will be experimenting with the Alium Globemaster and a selection of 5 or 6 shorter alliums, including the ever-popular “purple sensation”. Choose a sunny spot sheltered from the wind and with well-drained soil, and you’re good to go. Alliums, once established, are drought-tolerant, low-maintenance plants, and I’ve seen more of them recently in cottage gardens and borders.

Low-Maintenance Plants That Look Amazing All Year Long - Urban Oasis
June 28, 2025 - Install gravel or decomposed granite walkways—they look tidy year-round and weed less than a traditional path.

Drip irrigation, once set up, can run itself. Many Urban Oasis clients have enjoyed these hardscape approaches, finding that blending living and non-living elements creates a balanced, almost meditative garden, especially helpful in Texas’ unpredictable climate.
