Tips for small gardens

Small gardens

A few days ago a contact published the sale of his house, a small house but with a beautiful garden of those that one would swear cannot exist. It was in the middle of the city and although small it was an oasis in the middle of the concrete chaos.

And so it occurred to me to start researching the small gardens, with the mission of enhancing them with practical resources. After all, many of us must settle for balconies, terraces, or a reduced airspace. Should we give in to sleep? Of course not!

Ideas to enlarge the garden

If you have a small garden, it is best to study it thoroughly, know its dimensions and the way in which the sun gives its rays, if there are areas of constant shade and if the terrain is regular or irregular.

The advantage of small gardens is that they are warm and allow you to create a homely atmosphere, they become more of a home environment, a space for daily coexistence. For that, the best is place a table and chairs, some ornament on it to make the small garden an ideal place to enjoy breakfast or a snack.

Small gardens

You can incorporate some winks that will work as an optical illusion to create the feeling that the garden is larger than it actually is. Hanging flower pots they are an alternative. Place several of them to one side, on a wall and you will see how beautiful they are because the gaze will focus on this particular corner, giving away the idea that there are several sectors in the garden.

One of the most effective remedies is presence of mirrors. You can place them on the walls of the garden to give the feeling that there is more space. Place them in a place where the reflection is always something green: plants, trees, flowers. This way, the garden will appear much larger.

The magic of flowers

Take advantage of the colors of the flowers to create different corners since these differentiated sectors will allow to "extend" the surface. Try to use flowers of different sizes and shapes in order to create living segments that, although differentiated, allow to create a continuity with the rest of the corners. Take advantage of the uneven terrain to create levels, something that also helps the garden look bigger.

And on one side you can have a little garden in pots, in order to enjoy the organic aromatic herbs, which give an exquisite aroma that will complement your garden and make it look more beautiful.
