Designing a garden to accommodate the often competing desires of the entire family can be difficult and in a small plot, the challenge may seem even more overwhelming. That's where this inspiring collection of gardening plans can prove invaluable: it features comprehensive advice for choosing different features and planting arrangements that suit a limited area, and shows how to evaluate the characteristics of your own backyard for the strongest results. There are dozens of designs to choose from, including: Urban Hideaway, A Room with a View, Scented Sanctuary, and even an Eco-friendly garden. And, because a garden should reflect the personality of the family that keeps it, you can combine aspects from the different plans to create the space that's perfect for you.
