Make Garden Design Plans in the Winter
When winter is upon us and the garden goes quiet, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the successes and mistakes of the previous year.
Once you’ve finished pondering your wins and losses – ideally with a slice of pie and hot coffee in your hand – it’s time to plan for the future. I love to do that by thinking about garden design.
Take a bird’s-eye view of your garden and assess its potential. Are you making the most of your landscape? If not, it’s best to go back to the basic principles of garden design. I have 12 principles I return to year after year to refine my garden.
If you want to dive into all 12, you can read more on my blog, but here’s a quick overview. I hope you find them helpful.
