Design Your Garden On Paper First

Here are some tips to help you decide where and what you want to plant in your flower garden….

  • Use colored pencils to sketch out your garden design.  This will help you to get a better idea of the color scheme.
  • Try a variety of shapes and colors based on your personal preferences. Don’t just plant in rows.
  • Be creative with your color combinations.  Using a color wheel makes choosing colors easier.  You can get a color wheel at any art store.
  • Choose plants and bulbs that bloom at different times so you’ll have a spectacular show all year long.
  • The more the merrier! More plants and bulbs always look better than a few sparse ones.
  • Mix bulbs in with summer-blooming perennials. They will help hide the dying foliage of spring blooms.
