Last week I dropped by a friends’ house and she was apologizing for the state of her backyard. Laughing, I told her “Don’t feel bad, you should see my yard. I haven’t done a thing in it this summer!” And I truly haven’t, other than planting a handful of plants, pulling a few weeds at the start of the season when I still had energy, and setting up some impact sprinklers on automatic timers. In past years I loved standing outside at night hand watering all my plants- but we were so busy this summer, that just didn’t happen. Despite my utter and total neglect, however, I’m happy to report I do have a few survivors, thanks to my diy irrigation. If you don’t have drip and want to save some time, these sprinklers + a timer are the way to go! I’m linking the ones I use plus some of my backyard and patio favorites. gardeninghacks vegogarden raisedbeds solostove polywoodfurniture
