Don't Do That! Common Garden Design Mistakes

Listen Later

Garden design mistakes are costly, wasteful and discouraging…and really easy to make. 

In this episode we chat about how to avoid common design flaws, poor hardscape choices, accessories that don’t belong and plants in the wrong places. We discuss examples of why and where things go wrong, and what to do about it.
If you need a hard-hitting and honest reality check of why your garden just isn’t giving, then this episode is for you. And of course, it’s all caveated with a little sprinkling of subjectiveness.
