Create a Gorgeous Spring Garden to Enjoy Year-Round

There’s no better way to welcome the warm weather than by creating an outdoor oasis that will leave you itching to spend more time in your garden, while drastically increasing your home’s outdoor aesthetic. With these tips, you’ll have a garden your neighbours can’t help feeling envious of.

Raise the bar.

Raised flower beds and boxes are on trend this year. Not only are above ground gardens practical for growing vegetables and herbs, the eye-catching designs add a touch of personality to your garden. Plus, they’re great for growing flowers in smaller spaces.

Take a walk on the wild side.

Gone are the days of perfectly sculpted flower beds with colour-coordinated annuals. These days, wild gardens with lots of texture and colour are in style. Embrace a more natural look by planting options like ornamental cabbage, climbing vines, wild flowers, and moss.

Go green.

Late spring is the perfect time to put new trees in the ground. Nurseries are likely to be well-stocked with fresh selections, and the ground will have thawed enough to dig deep. Plus, having young trees on your property will be very attractive to future buyers.
