Try These Gardening Tips to Get the Look and Feel You Want
Gardening trends may not change as fast as fashion and decorating do, but they may bring some new ideas of things you want to incorporate into your outdoor space.
The newest trends in gardening tend to be less about certain colors or styles and more about the feel of your space, as well as what you are trying to accomplish with your garden. Try these gardening tips to stay on-trend:
Natural materials: Incorporating natural materials is one of the big trends shaping gardening right now. Environmentally-focused gardeners want a landscape that flows naturally between added elements and their plants. You can follow this trend in a couple of easy ways. For instance, if you are thinking of replacing your deck or including some planters, look for natural materials and color choices that make your added elements blend right into your garden.
Many people like this trend because not only is it kinder to the environment, but it also provides natural habitats for animals and is aesthetically pleasing. It may also translate into less work for you, as a more relaxed and natural look takes precedence.
Low maintenance: This is an option for gardeners that love working in their outdoor space, but love relaxing in it even more. You can choose low-maintenance plants that require little pruning and incorporate techniques to reduce the encroachment of weeds in your garden.
There are tools out there that help you keep maintenance down, too, like self-watering planters and shrub trimmers that make maintenance quick and easy. Make sure you complete the low-maintenance design with some strategically placed furniture and maybe even a hammock to make the most of your garden.
Streamlined and modern: If you crave simple lines in your decorating indoors, you might like it in your garden, too. Try grouping plants in blocks based on color or forgoing a lot of flowers to focus on topiaries and lush grass.
If you enjoy putting a lot of thought into your indoor decorating, then a modern garden might be the right choice for you. You’ll have fun choosing the color scheme, the progression of sections of plant types around your garden and the prospect of doing it all over again next year. You can include cushioned furniture in stylish colors and coordinating accent planters.
