How will maintenance affect garden design?

With garden design, the more time you have, and probably the larger the garden would be, the more high maintenance plants you would incorporate into the garden. And, hopefully, you would have a budget to help with that as well. Again with available time, the less time your have, the more you want to focus on low maintenance plants within your garden design. With a smaller garden, perhaps larger masses of plants with fewer species will really help reduce the maintenance.
