How to Plant a Garden Summary
Hi. This is Yolanda Vanveen on behalf of Expert Village. In this section we've talked about flower gardening. How to decide what type of flower garden I'm going to have. I'm going to have a large garden, a small garden, a moon garden, a mixed color garden, a shade garden, a sun garden. There's so many different choices. But in the end I've found that gardening is like throwing a party. You don't have to have a guest list. You don't have to have a series of plants and a schedule. By selecting plants that you think would make great gifts at your house your creating a garden. You can always move them to a sunnier spot. You can always move them to a shadier spot. You can always put them in another group. Gardening's about change. Just like partying is about change. And it is your garden. And if you have a plant that's mean, invasive or pushy you always have a neighbor you can bring it over to or a last minute homecoming present for a friend. And remember that. You don't take it personally. Just like your parties when everyone doesn't show up or too many people show up. Gardening's about now. It's about action. It's about seasons and enjoying the theme of the day. Thanks for watching this series on flower gardening. I hope that I've given you some ideas that you can take home with you. Enjoy your garden and enjoy your life.
