Gardening is a fun activity that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. A garden needs some sunshine, fresh air and rain to survive.
If you have a garden, adding features such as fountains or ponds can make it more inviting and beautiful. This is a great way to add some extra functionality to your garden and make it more enjoyable to use.
Do not be afraid to be creative and come up with new things to do. Sticking to the same old things will not get you very far.
I love having a garden because it brings such beauty into my home. I try to buy plants that compliment the ones that are already in my garden, so that everything looks neat and orderly. For example, if there are plants with sprawling vines in my garden, I will usually buy plants with short, sturdy vines so they can all grow together harmoniously.
In the spring, you will see flowering plants such as daffodils and tulips. The summer months bring beautiful flowers such as lilies and roses. Fall brings hearty plants like pumpkins and acorn trees. Winter sees Christmas trees and other ornamental plants.
The hardscape in any garden should be designed with purpose and function in mind. Some elements that can be used to add design interest and functionality include stepping stones, benches, urns or planters. By adding these easy-to-use features to your landscape, you can create an inviting area that is perfect for enjoying the surroundings.
