			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A garden idea is the art of designing a picture layout of planting in landscapes or a garden. The garden idea is best if it comes from you, the owner, and if you are not satisfied by your own judgment it is best to seek professional advice. The professional advisers are reliable due to their level of experience as well as expertise. Most garden advisers are highly trained in the principals of horticulture and design. It is best that you explain the idea that you have in detail to the professionals. Once you present the idea to the professional adviser then he or she may ask you to draw a sketch of the garden.  You as the owner of the garden are highly expected to participate in order to confirm if the garden idea you had in mind is turning into reality. </p>
<p>Factors To Consider In Your Garden Idea</p>
<p>The location of your garden is very important for it influences the idea. The garden location should be topographically significant with a microclimate that is suitable for the plants.  A garden idea should include the fastest and easiest way to access water. The soil that is going to be used for planting should be rich soil. The quality of the soil too has influence on the achievement of the plants as well as garden.  A garden seed requires sufficient soil nutrients as well as water. If the soil is not rich, there is no need to panic as you can improve the soil by amendment, which is the adding of beneficial materials in the exhumed native topsoil or subsoil. However, not all soils are to be amended as most plants also do well in impoverished soil.</p>
<p>A garden idea requires you to think of the boundaries, as this really influences the final look of the garden. Large gardens may need internal boundaries which could be in the form of shrubs or hedges. If your garden idea is an outdoor garden, then you may need to think about the garden furniture. You may consider the patio set that consists of four to six chairs, a parasol and a table. Sunlight is a very important feature in your garden; therefore, you should select a part that has sufficient sunlight to be the garden.  This is very important as it regulates plant processes such as phototropism, photoperiodism and photosynthesis.  All this processes help in the growth of the plants. Therefore, when you have a garden idea remember to consider all the above factors.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Garden design is the way you plan on keeping your garden. To design a garden you need to draw a sketch of the garden that you have in mind.

Steps for a sloppy garden should be wide so as not to cause accidents by having people falling.  There should be in built chairs or seats that are to be used in that garden and are waterproof due to the rainy and winter seasons. A garden design should include a play area for the children where as in the case of a sloppy garden, the play area is at the end of the wide steps. </p>
<p>For a garden design to come out perfect, you must have visited flower gardens or when selecting flowers or plants ensure that you have seen them physically. Also ensure that you have seen them in full maturity for that shall be the last outcome of the plant.  If you have not seen the plants you might select short flowers while you wanted long ones and vice versa.
