Follow these step-by-step instructions for selecting a location and designing your garden; adding borders and a dramatic focal point; choosing the best plants for your design, soil, and climate; and caring for your landscape once everything is in place. Keep track of all your plantings with personalized seed markers you can make yourself. The end result will be an attractive garden space that you can call your own.
