4 Tips to Creating a New Garden in Your Yard

4 Tips to Creating a New Garden in Your Yard

December 3, 2018

Attractive gardens are like pieces of art that appeal to the senses. The wide diversity of fragrance, colors, flavors, design combinations and sounds from insects and birds attracted to the flowers and plants in the garden all contribute to a fantastic experience. If you are tired of looking at your open yard as a blank canvas, then it is time for you to change it into a beautiful garden. Creating an appealing garden can seem overwhelming at first, but the truth is that it is quite easy to effect.

Tips to Creating a New Garden in Your Yard

Here are some practical tips to use as you create a new garden in your yard:

  1. Choose Functionality Over Fashion

Even though an attractive garden looks glorious, it must be practical enough to meet the requirements of your whole family. Therefore, besides aiming for the most beautiful garden in the neighborhood, the area should also be functional. Ensure that you have enough space to install a clothesline, a play area for your kids and also set some space aside for planting herbs or vegetables. Additionally, you should also leave some room for privacy, especially if you want to create a relaxed dining or seating area in the garden.

  1. Select A Style

The time you spend planning how you will use the garden space will determine if you will achieve that articulate setup that looks good and works for you. The first thing to consider is the type of garden you would like to have. You may visit credible sites like Cozy Down Home for inspiration on various garden styles to go for. You may also drive around the neighborhood to see which styles will suit your home. Since a garden helps to increase the value of your home, especially when selling, make sure the style you select compliments the house. Are you looking to create a traditional English garden where you will enjoy your afternoon tea, or do you want a resort-inspired Bali garden around your pool?

  1. Draw A Rough Sketch Of The Garden

It is always helpful to visualize your goals, and the same applies when you want to create a new garden in your yard. You do not need to be very skilled in graphic design or be an experienced architect to create a rough sketch of the garden. Just take a piece of paper and draw the current layout of your yard. Next, please list all the functional elements or critical features and draw them in the sketch. Use the garden paths and beds to link all the various components while making sure that the tracks are adequately broad. Finally, list the ideas for every garden bed and the plants you intend to use.

  1. Mass Plant

An easy trick when creating new gardens is to mass plant in large groups of five per every species you want to grow. Even though individual plants usually look attractive, they do not typically have a significant impact that you can get if you have a large group. Additionally, mass planting is an excellent method that new gardeners can use when they want to achieve the maximum effect with a limited selection of different plants.
