Multi Level Garden with Shirley Bovshow

Multi-Level Garden with Shirley Bovshow
Garden designer Shirley Bovshow shows us how to make the most of a small space. She creates a beautiful garden by hanging plants at different levels from an arbor.
Tips:
1. Create a multi-level garden with low maintenance plants that have an extended bloom time.
2. Create a focal point using an arbor. 3. Use mulch to keep weeds down. Water if soil feels dry to touch. Fertilize with a diluted solution every week. 4. Rotate hanging baskets for even sun exposure. All of today's plants are from hortcoutureplants.com.
