Garden Design Idea – KEEP IT SIMPLE!

Plant Combination

Lots of garden experts would have us believe that “the more the merrier” when it comes to garden design. Complicated designs with hundreds of different plants. Who can afford that? Who has time to maintain complex gardens?

My mantra (and the best garden tip I could ever give) is KEEP IT SIMPLE. Remember when your mother used to say, “less is more”? Without a doubt, sometimes a simple statement is the best statement of all when it comes to garden beauty.

Above you see a photo from my garden of a two plant combination – Geranium and Lambs Ear. Simple. Uncomplicated. Beautiful.

When you start fantasizing about next season’s garden ideas remember to keep it simple. You might be surprised by the results.

By the way, I do not know the variety of perennial geranium variety – does anyone has an idea?
