    What does your dream garden look like?

    Here is what mind looks like- except for the fact of the lack of color- I would add more- everything is perfect!

     That is absolutely gorgeous.  I love the free-standing fireplace.

    It is pretty for sure but it is too permanent. My garden changes from year to year and I like to be able to keep that variety. To be stuck with just one thing would bore me.

    My dream garden would have an oriental flair. I love japanese style gardens, with little water features and an ornamental bridge, Cherry blossom and Hibiscus flowers. I would even have a little Pavilion (japanese style), with trailing roses climbing on trellises around it. Lush foliage grasses and rich flowering perennials would create a scene of oriental harmony, as well as appearing delicate and beautiful. I would also encourage wildlife with a little fish pond and certain plants, that attract certain species of insects and birds. A place of natural tranquility. Unfortunately this would be impossible to do in our very small back garden. We have a fair sized garden shed, taking up most of our garden space and therefore we are very restricted.

    Cant find my dream garden.  I will have to create it. 

     I was planning to put up a 10 x 12 shed, but now i am reconsidering due to the ugliness of it all.  maybe something smaller and decorative.  But i think the reply about being restricted convinced me to scale it down.  I just need enough for mower, edger, weedeater, snowblower and bikes, and they wont all be in there at the same time.  uggh, decisions decisions decisions.
