Small Space Gardening

You Don't Need a Big Space to Grow a Great Garden

Ever think that you don't have enough space to have a garden? Well, think again! You can grow delicious fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, herbs, and beautiful flowers. Best of all, you can do it in a small space!

Here are some tips for designing and planting your small space garden:

Make sure the location you choose will get plenty of sunlight during the day. There are many plants and vegetables that will do very well without sunlight, but the majority of them need a good couple of hours a day of direct sun. Without this main ingredient, your plants will not blossom and vegetables will not ripen.
Keep a nice flow within your garden. For a good transition, you want to keep larger plants and vegetables in the back, smaller low-growing ones in the front. This adds depth to your garden and makes it appear much larger than it really is.
Color scheme is important to keep in mind when planning your garden. For smaller spaces, you may prefer one color scheme. When you add too many elements of color, it can become overwhelming to the eye.

Many of us today don't have the time or the space to grow large gardens. Why not try a smaller more "specific" garden. For example, try a "Salsa" garden. All you'll need are tomatoes, peppers (red and/or green), and onions.
