What happens after your garden is established? In this episode of the Plant Nebraska Podcast, Hanna and Sarah walk through the full lifecycle of a landscape—from establishment watering and weeding to long-term management, tree care, and eventually refreshing aging gardens. They discuss how maintenance styles differ depending on your goals, why some plants earn extra attention, and how landscapes naturally evolve over time.
