Planning and tending a garden

Darko Kantoci

Abstract

Planning, i.e. designing a garden, is a very complicated assignment, and it can almost be compared to designing a house. To be more accurate, it is about planning a vegetable plot, the space surrounding the house. The way you plan a future garden depends on several factors: location, the configuration of the land, the house and other buildings around the house, the existing vegetation and the surface of the vegetable plot. However, the most important factor which determines the gardening mode is the wish of the owner. When gardening, it is necessary to keep in mind certain rules. The first step is designing garden elements and choosing a gardening style. Only then you can start with construction work, gardening the flooring, choosing and placing garden elements, and in the end, you choose the plants. The desired appearance of the garden demands maintaining, therefore, regular tending measurements are necessary.
