Planting things together that are normally planted in separate beds is fun, visually exciting, and a great way to make extra space in small gardens. Plan your garden early so you have enough time to plant and enough time to grow hardy before the summer heat starts to take over. If you are short on space, you can actually grow a pumpkin in a flower bed and then let the vine ramble onto the yard. When youre finished creating the yard you want with Better Homes & Gardens landscaping software, you can print out your final product so that you can get any supplies you need. Flowers and ferns are perfect for this.
