With warmer days on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to think about changes that can improve your outdoor space. Start by making a plan and taking a stroll around your garden. Decide on a style that suits you—one that makes you feel relaxed and happy.
Also, consider how much maintenance is involved, such as digging, weeding, or pruning. If you enjoy flowers, herbs, or even a veggie patch, a cottage style might be perfect. For something low-maintenance, try Mediterranean-inspired or gravel gardens. You can even mix and match to create a style that reflects your lifestyle.
🌸 Container Gardening
Deadheading and watering are all this type of garden needs to stay beautiful. Containers also allow you to move plants around to suit their needs or create new displays. Keep in mind: the smaller the pot, the quicker it dries out and needs water.
✨ Chic and Sleek
Clean lines, simple paved patios, and architectural statement plants create a modern, low-maintenance look. Only occasional tidying is required to keep it neat and stylish.
🌞 Mediterranean Magic
Think terracotta pots, neutral pavers, and gravel borders with drought-hardy aromatic plants such as Lavender, Rosemary, Thyme, and Salvias. This creates a relaxed, easy-care garden with timeless charm.
🌼 Cottage Classic
A vibrant mix of colorful, densely planted flower beds filled with different flowering plants in varying heights. A true cottage garden blends flowers with vegetables, though keeping edibles in a separate small plot may be easier to manage. Informal paths weaving between the borders add to the charm.
🪴 Minimalist Vibes
Perfect for those who prefer entertaining over gardening. Keep hard landscaping as the focus, and soften it with a few easy-care potted statement plants. Less fuss, more function.
