Often this flower garden will have a particular focus, like a rose garden or garden that attracts butterflies and provides habitat for them. Most gardens require that every gardener must spend enough time in his or her garden so that each plot is kept properly maintained and as weed free as possible. Most gardens hold a couple of group work days every year, usually for spring and fall clean up. Often there will be an improvement project that the garden committee organizes, like building a seating area or a children's garden area. Every community garden sets their own rules about required participation for these group work days.
Every garden is different.
