Let’s go through the step-by-step process of creating a new garden layout together.
Step 1 - Measure the space
Draw a map of your space or print a photo and draw measurements on it.
Step 2 - Learn the main plant roles
Consider the three most important plant roles - small, medium, large.
See them in two different types of layers - height and depth.
Step 3 - Draw a frontal design of your garden
Use one of three methods to draw shrubs onto a photo of your proposed garden space.
Step 4 - Create an overhead layout
Use the measurements you took in step one and the frontal view to create a planting map.
Step 5 - Select your garden plants
Use the planting map as a shopping list for the sizes of plants you need and the quantities. Reference these articles to choose particular plants:
