Choosing the ‍Right ‍Plants for‍ Your Portland ⁢Landscape

Portland’s unique climate presents both​ opportunities and challenges for gardeners. Here’s a⁣ swift⁣ guide to selecting ‍plants that will thrive in ⁢your yard:

Consider your sun exposure: Different areas of your yard receive varying amounts of sunlight. Assess your ‌site⁢ to choose‌ plants that ⁢are⁤ well-suited⁤ to those ​conditions.
Think⁤ about soil type: Portland’s soil can be heavy clay. Amend your soil with organic matter to improve⁤ drainage and aeration.
