Theme Gardens


Theme Gardens

 ENGLISH GARDE SHADE DESIGN
 Need a good place to start your landscape design? With so many different plants to choose from sometimes it can be hard to find a good starting point. Theme gardens are great for that. You can plan your whole garden around a central idea, or you can plan different sections to incorporate a theme. For example, on your patio or balcony, you might want a moon or fragrance garden so you can enjoy blooms in the evening and get a waft of sweet smelling blossoms. Next to your kitchen door, you could plant herbs and vegetable to create a cooking garden. Do you have an area where your sprinkler doesn’t reach? You can create a rock garden with low growing and drought resistant plants, or a cutting garden using Bearded Iris and Peonies. Butterflies and birds can be attracted to your yard by using different plant combinations and garden features like a fountain or birdbath. Hedges can be used to create screens for hidden gardens. And it’s a lot of fun to watch children play in gardens especially designed for them. Or, maybe you just want a low maintenance formal garden with seasonal color. The possibilities are endless. Come on in to the store and we would love to help you get the plants you need depending on your gardening needs. We also have some designs for butterfly, urban vegetable, and shade gardens already made to help you get started.
