To get your small garden design ideas go to the library and look some garden magazine. Look around your neighborhood and if you like any, take a picture of the garden. On a plain paper, draw a diagram of the garden that you are planning to do. At first measure the length and width of the area you are planning for the garden. Select what kinds of plants will be in the garden and what colors of flowers you want to plant. List the names of all plants that you want on your garden. Include some shrubs, perenials and annuals. How much space each plants will need and put taller plants at the back of the garden and smaller at the front.

Find out how much sunlight the garden will get and select the flowers accordingly. How much space each kind of plant will need and how many plants you will need. Include some perenials in you garden plan. Perenials come years after years, that way it minimizes your cost. Once you plant some perenials, you do not have to buy plants next year. It saves some time and money. On the other hand annuals keep on blooming during the summer all the time.

Plant some bulbs like tulips. Bulbs, will come back every year during the early spring time. After a long dry winter, bulbs start coming out and blooming and brings back the colorful beauty in your garden.

You can also include some statues, fountains and other decorative containers. These are very easy to find in nurseries or you can order online. You can include some paving path to give an easy access to the garden.

Include some borders to the garden. Decide what kind of borders you want. Putting some stone around the garden gives an nice natural look.
