Do you want to create a small garden at home, but only have limited space? These three simple ideas show how a compact area can become green and inviting. Whether you are working with a balcony, terrace or small backyard, you can prepare for warm days with a practical miniature garden.
Small garden design – arrange flowers in pots
If you want to create a small garden but do not have much room, flower pots are the simplest solution. You can plant herbs, flowers, vegetables and even small fruit plants in containers. This idea works on a balcony, on a terrace and sometimes even indoors near a bright window. If you have a little space in the backyard, combine pots of different sizes and shapes to create a small green corner.

Small garden design – create a vertical garden
If you want to create a small garden but floor area is limited, use the vertical space. A vertical garden is not only decorative, but also highly practical. It keeps planting close to the wall and leaves room for a small seating area in the courtyard. Think about the structure, irrigation and plant choice before you begin. With the right pattern and species, a green wall can create a natural focal point in the backyard or on the front of the house.

Use the window sill for a limited garden
The last way to make the most of a limited garden space is to use the window. Arrange small flower pots on the windowsill. This adds decoration to the house while giving the plants enough light.
