This handbook is organized into two sections. The first section contains background information that will help you as you make plans to create a Louisiana-friendly yard. The second offers detailed description of landscape ideas and practices that explain and illustrate the seven basic LYN principles.
The information contained in these pages describes the fundamentals of creating a low-environmental-impact landscape. More gardening and landscaping information is available through other LSU AgCenter publications. Publications are available through your local parish LSU AgCenter Extension office or online.
