Q.Planting and lamdscaping around a grave
Imagining that this 18ft by 12ft area lied in your backyard, what would you plant here? Plus, with a pergola standing over the spot.Im only looking for ideas. I’m more interested in the layout and planning rather then the actual plants that would thrive under the conditions.
This article is more about cemetery plantings than a backyard grave site, but some of the tips may help you with your plan and choices for plant materials.
