Contractor Julie Daniels is showing us some quick landscaping for anyone who really doesn’t want to do any landscaping.

"If you’re not the green thumb this is probably for you," Daniels said.

She put in this rock garden outside her home and it’s practically maintenance free.

"We’re going to start with this, it’s what laid under all of the rock here."
Julie pointed to a double thick roll of durable liner, which will prevent weeds from growing up through the rocks.

Always cut an extra piece than what you need and trim the extra later.

Use landscape pins to hold the tarp into place and then shovel rocks on top.

Items you’ll need: Rocks, double thick durable liner, landscape pins, shovel and scissors.
