Create your perfect garden this February

This month it’s the month to get planning, and to plan you need to know what you want, and the same is true for gardens. So to start creating your perfect garden start by writing down what you want from it, whether that’s a space that’s inviting and welcoming, vibrant and fun, private and protected or somewhere to unwind and relax.

Think about the style, the features you want to include, the colours you love and the plants that appeal. Use books, magazines and Pinterest for inspiration and sketch out your ideas. Different plants lend themselves to different garden styles, whether clipped, clean and formal or big, bold, bright and tropical, so take a look at your local garden centre too, and in gardens where you live to see what grows well.

And if you’re not sure, then the RHS have advice to help you choose your style, as whatever your taste and lifestyle, there will be a garden design style to suit you.
