Next, you will want to draw a layout of your garden. A good method for your garden layout is the Zone Method. With the Zone Method you group different plants together so that they benefit each other by providing shade and allowing for water retention. The premise of the Zone Method is to divide your garden into “zones”. You could have one zone for herbs, another for vegetables, another for leafy vegetables, another for flowers. You are only limited by your imagination when planning out your garden.
Certain plants do better when planted near other plants. This is called companion planting. When you visit your nursery of garden shop consult the staff about your gardening layout plan. They should be able to give you plenty of helpful advice.
A successful garden begins with thought and planning. With the right planning and effort, your garden should provide you with much enjoyment and a bountiful harvest.
