Pitfalls of The Summer Garden


We all love to create a summer garden that's a show stopper. However, what we don't consider are the things to avoid when planting our summer garden.If you avoid those pitfalls from others mistakes, then the results for you will be much more successful in the long run.

Landscaping for the benefit of the neighbors is something we are all guilty of at one time or another. If you spend alot of time indoors, then plant your garden where you can easily view it from within the comfort of your home. In other words, garden for self enjoyment and place your garden where you can enjoy the fruits of your labor everyday!

Keep your garden on scale with your lawn to avoid too much clutter or so it doesn't look like its under maintained. Try keeping everything in your garden in perspective and appropriate to the size of you lawn and the climate of the area in which you are planting that summer garden.

Another point to consider is avoiding the lack of planning when planting that summer garden. Thinking through what you want and where you want that summer garden is very important. Without a good plan from which to build on will result in the failure of your garden. Invest the biggest portion of your energy and time to the planning stage of your summer garden. You will be rewarded with not just a beautiful summer garden, but a unique design too!
