Benefits of Having a Small Garden
By admin | March 18, 2008
- Design can be easier when you can take in the whole picture at once.
- It takes less plants to make a dramatic effect.
- Gardeners get to know every space and plant in a small garden. Any plant that is out of place or not thriving can be spotted and corrected quickly.
- Small gardens lend themselves to being enclosed. You may not want to install a stone wall, but an evergreen or flowering hedge will give the illusion of a secret garden. A simple low boxwood edge transforms a small garden into a formal garden. Hardscaping and fencing enclose and define a space for entertaining or children’s play.
