Designing a courtyard garden is a challenge we relish at secret gardens. While larger gardens grant the freedom to include everything, including the kitchen sink, the tighter confines of a courtyard encourage so much creativity, as we work to make the most of every inch. A well designed courtyard will be used in its entirety, so it’s a joy to make every part of it perfectly functional and aesthetically spot on.
Rooftop gardens or a green roof can turn an ugly, sterile space into something truly special. As space gets tighter in our cities and inner suburbs, landscapers are looking outside the backyard box for places to plant out, but the benefits of rooftop gardens go well beyond the prettiness of plants.
Creating a balcony garden certainly has its share of challenges, with a fraction of the footage of the average garden, no soil and likely no irrigation. The good news is, with a bit of planning, it’s easy to work around these challenges and turn a boxed-in balcony into a green and serene escape from the surrounding urban jungle.
