How to Make the Most of Your Small Space Garden
Posted on 01. Apr, 2009 by admin in Tips
Did you know that a great garden is possible even in the smallest of spaces? Small space gardens are an effective way to make use of all available space and think outside of the box, using space that is not only found on the ground, but on walls, fences and other parts of the garden that can be used to grow vegetables and plants within any small green space.
Use these tips to make the most of your small garden:
Use the walls. There are many shelves, garden trellises and other types of hanging baskets that can be used to make the most of the small garden space, which should be taken advantage of in spaces that are lacking area. Hanging baskets can be used to grow flowers and other types of small plants – even an herb garden! Hanging baskets can also help to reduce the access to the plants from pests that may invade the garden!
Small garden spaces are often lacking ground room and have cement patios, consider using patio stones that are smaller in size through the entire garden, rather than taking advantage of the entire stone patio. Removing the stone patio can create the maximum room to grow items in the garden.
