Little is big again this year as gardeners embrace
fairy gardens, terrariums and all kinds of innovative succulent plantings. These little gardens and living decor can be used to accent outdoor rooms all season and then brought indoors to enjoy throughout the cold winter months. Micro-greens are also hot this year. A favourite for foodies and health conscious gardens they are chock full of vitamins and go from seed to plate in two weeks. For gardeners who want it all − vegetable gardens are
no longer shunned, placed in hiding behind the home. Colourful new vegetable varieties and old standbys are growing alongside beautiful flowers in the garden beds − edible landscaping is on the rise! Insert your veggies in with the flowers; add fruit trees and bushes to your landscape design, there are no limits to these pretty and practical combinations. Still want a traditional type of vegetable garden? Raised beds of veggies interspersed with insect repelling marigolds and nasturtiums are easier on the eyes and your back. This year create an outdoor room that is all you and be sure to take time to sit back and enjoy! q
