One simple, if long-term, way to increase the viability of your organic garden is to let Mother Nature do her work over the years, and sort out the weaker varieties and species of plants like she’s supposed to. No matter how much you like a particular type of plant or flower, if you’re lavishing your attention and resources on a weak breed you’re doing the rest of your garden a disservice.

Keep an annual journal of the plants that do best in your garden, and plant the winners every year. In time, you’ll end up with a plant mix that will provide the maximum benefit from the minimum outlay of time, resources, and expense.
