How to grow a garden
Decide what you like best about the garden.
Gardens are personal. Everyone has a different approach, and factors like space, climate, and your own aesthetic determine what type of garden will work for you.

Choose from: (i) Some people have gardens that are a mix of vegetables and flowers, and other people have gardens that are dominated by one type of plant. Choose the balance that makes the most sense for you. (ii) Ask yourself what interests you, and what activities you enjoy doing. Think back on how you felt about gardening a long time ago. (iii) Consider some of the following ideas when determining the type of garden : Does it remind you of a past shared hobby? Whose scenery do you like most about this garden? You can also take inspiration from other natural landscapes. The distance from home to many places can affect the fertility of a garden. (iv) Determine if the plants you chose have a range of strengths and desired flower combinations. Browse brochures online for garden gardening maps or pictures of plant life or fun flower arrangements.
