27 Jul 10 Garden Ideas to Try This Summer!
Make it Multi-Level
If you are looking to landscape your garden, consider making it multi-level. This creates defined zones within the same space, meaning your veggie garden, kids play area and dining area can be separate yet together.
Just Add Water
Water is such a calming element in any garden. Forget weed filled ponds and tacky water features. Here’s how to add water the 2015 way.
A Touch of Zen
Be inspired by these beautiful Japanese gardens and bring a touch of zen into your life.
Create a pollinator garden by planting local wild flowers. Not only will you end up with a beautiful country garden but you’ll be doing your part to bring the bees back!
Build a Fire Pit
What better way to spend an evening than to cosy up with friends and family around the fire pit. An awesome additional social space to add to your home.
Add an Outdoor Kitchen
Why just have a BBQ when you can have an entire outdoor kitchen. Add a sink, gas burners, cupboard space and more importantly a fridge and freezer to keep the drinks cold. Your garden parties will be legendary!
A Garden With A View
A rooftop garden is so well suited to a city. With only a small space you can create your own little city haven.
If your garden lacks space but you want to add more greenery, simply go up instead of out. Planting a vertical garden is easier than it looks and there are plenty of guides online so you can DIY.
It’s a simple addition to a garden but it can make your outdoor dining area so much more intimate and appealing. Hang lanterns or train climbers over the roof of the pergola to create amazing atmosphere in your garden.
The Fruits of Your Labour
Make your garden work for you by growing vegetables, fruits and herbs. There’s an absolute array you can grow even here in the UK and with veggie gardens becoming more and more popular you don’t have to look far for help and advice on getting started.
