Please show me your small terrace house garden

[sizeofalentil]

If you have one! My garden is teeny tiny and all mud. Nothing on Pinterest looks like it and can’t find much inspirational applicable content.

Would love to see some real life examples please if anyone has a similar sized garden.

Panda your garden looks great and not overgrown at all! Evergreen planting is so important isn't it Love your planting so far!

Some possible ideas would be to have a couple of slender, dwarf trees at the end to screen your neighbours during the spring/summer months. Something like a flowering cherry or amelanchier. Blurring the fence lines has the effect of making the garden look bigger. Blossom will give a different focal point.

I'd also be tempted to widen your flowerbeds. Plants don't like to compete with grass and planting near the fence creates a 'rain shadow'.

To help with this I'd cut the lawn into a nice clean circle/oval. It will widen your flowerbeds and create curves to offset the rectilinear fences and houses.

Love the baskets on the fence, I have them too

Frosties I stole the alliums from another poster on here

It's lovely having a thread dedicated to small gardens (sorry to crash yours OP)! Pinterest is okay for inspiration but a lot of the gardens are clearly ££££ and really over-designed. I like to see naturally evolving gardens
Also when you google small gardens you end up with a lot of images of city courtyard styles. I wanted inspiration for typical lawn-fences-patio suburban gardens where I didn't necessarily need to build a lot of stuff

*stole the idea, not the allium bulbs

This is my tiny front mid terrace garden. My back garden isall decked over but we're getting an extension so it will be torn up and after that I have to plan what to do.

That's really pretty fooferella! I love the contrast of planting and gravel

Size,

I dabble in garden design, want me to have a look at yours? (i did use to be a landscape designer so im not just a random!) do you have measurements?

I'm losing my mind on maternity leave so would welcome a distraction. We did most of the work on our little garden ourselves other then a deck so i can make some suggestions along those lines or base something on your budget if you have one!

PM me if you are interested

Has anyone tried any seed packs for their borders? I think I’m going to take ginger cats advice about the alliums and grow a rambling rose up my right hand fence but I wanted a bit if gap fill colour and saw these. Anyone used them?
