Just Your Luck


Your yard’s missing something. It’s got flowerbeds, it’s got bushes, it’s got trees – what it lacks is umph. Wish someone would just sweep in and landscape for you? Well, keep dreaming. No, we’re serious: keep dreaming.

Three local gardening advocates (Grow Native, Shaw Nature Reserve and Wild Ones Natural Landscape) have something special up their sleeve for a homeowner within the St. Louis city limits south of I-44. So long as you’ve got a 12-by-12-foot area and are willing to keep it up, you could win a native landscape makeover. Not only will a landscape artist redesign your yard, a planting team will install a variety of donated plants. Wouldn’t that be dreamy!
