A small garden has to provide colour, interest and entertainment for everyone who uses it, all year round. When you don't have much available room, that can prove to be quite a challenge.
That's why a small garden needs a strong design, so you really make the most of every square inch of space. The way to do that is to be bold with your use of shapes, colours and planting.
Try incorporating the following elements:
- different heights
- sweeping curves
- structural shapes
- bold planting
- coordinated colour schemes
The biggest problem with a small garden is not deciding what to include, it's which features to leave out.
The mistake most people make is trying to pack too much in, and mixing too many different styles and features together, which can just look a mess. As a rule: - less is more
- choose one main style and stick to it
- take the growing conditions into account
So, let's start by looking at the boundaries.
