With the promise of sunnier days ahead, we're officially at the time of year when we all start to think about how to get our gardens in top shape. There are countless aspects to this task, from finding the right lighting to selecting the most luscious greenery. But, to help you narrow it down, we've started by outlining all the trends we don't want to see popping up in your garden this year.
While it's certainly true that our outdoor areas are less affected by the trend cycle than our interiors, this doesn't mean they are entirely impervious to it, either. It's important to note, though, that when we talk about garden trends, we're not only referring to the visual appeal of these styles. As we all become increasingly aware of the impact our gardens have on the wider ecosystem, many of the trends we consider the most outdated are those that cause more harm than good. Our idea of what a garden should be, and how it should look, is ever-shifting, and that's reflected in the trends we favor today.
