Best Ideas from Garden Walks and Public Gardens

Just looking through some of the pictures from garden walks I have seen over the past couple years. I thought I'd share some of their great ideas.


Do make an entrance.


Do showcase a collection by planting all the same genus of plants together.


Do think of your garden as a series of vignettes.


Use high contrast foliage plants.


Mass one cultivar instead of a hodge-podge of many plants.


Use the power of paint to accent plants.


Sometimes the power of paint is to change what is into what we wish it was!
