9. Welcome birds. Connecting with the natural environment by inviting birds into your yard is another way to make a garden feel at once peaceful and more alive. Hang a feeder or choose a water feature with birds in mind — they often like shallow water and always like it to be clean — and wait for a few days for birds to “discover” your garden.Make Your Garden a Haven for Backyard Birds
2. Revamp your side yard. Often a neglected area of gardens, side yards can be transformed into beautiful winding walkways, private seating areas or — if you have enough sun — areas for growing veggies and herbs. You can get started right away in mild climates by planting, clearing the space and installing new walkways or features like arbors. In snowy climates, bookmark ideas for your side yard now and wait until the ground warms up to start digging.
6. A Secret GardenThis London courtyard has appeal straight out of The Secret Garden. And a palette that’s mostly green with white blooms thrown in makes you appreciate all of the different forms and textures of the plants, which range from carefully clipped shrubs on the ground to wild vines that climb the walls and extend overhead.Notable detail: That’s a lily pond in the foreground.See the rest of this home
