Home lawn care could be as complex or simple as you make it. Before you decide to put in different colors and varieties of exotic plants it is important to consider just how much free time you could spend taking care of these unusual plants, or in lieu of your own loving care, if you can afford to have a professional landscape team come around to take regular care of your plants.

Any kind of foliage that is not native to the area is called exotic plant and that means it will necessitate more care and extra items such as special food, water or lighting conditions for it to thrive. So, one way to avoid making lawn care in your home a time consuming job is to plant only native plants that are used to fending for themselves, as it were.

Some people, myself included, tend to believe even the most basic lawn care a bit boring. Yep, even just taking out the old lawn mower for a short clipping session can look very boring. But then again, I live in an almost tropical climate where the lawn grows so fast that if I don't trim every week in the summertime things begin to look like a jungle.

There is always the herbal lawn for those of us who look for a way to cut down on even basic lawn care. True, if you already have a lawn in place, or if the existing lawn is a particularly hardy variety such as St. Augustine or some sorts of crab grass, you may find it more work to get started. But you may find it worthwhile and even pleasurable to integrate an herbal lawn if you don't have a lawn yet or have a more fragile variety growing.

An herbal lawn is just what it sounds like, a lawn that is composed of an herb rather than a kind of grass. You can produce an herbal lawn out of many different sorts of herbs. The true challenge is to find an herb that tolerates heavy foot traffic at the same time that it is not too prickly or woody if you like to play or sit on the lawn. There are many varieties of creeping thyme and chamomile that fall into this ideal middles ground.

Herbal lawns grow not as fast as regular grasses and smell simply wonderful when they are tread or sat upon. In fact, herbal lawns can be so wonderful on a nice summer day that many people erect what's called a 'gardener's couch'. A gardener's couch is created by shaping raw earth into a comfortable shape or shapes which are then sowed herb seeds. For an even greater olfactory thrill, plant a variety of herbs. Every movement from your body will release a different herbal perfume.
