A good garden requires three key elements to make it a success; the first is great foliage. You need intelligently places plants, good colour combinations and well trimmed bushes to keep the garden looking tidy and fresh. The second thing you need is a hint of the man made; something to let your guests know that you didn’t just let this thing grow on its own. You had a direct influence in making this garden happen, and you have something to prove it. The final thing you need is wildlife. But it’s easier said than done; animals are creatures of habit and getting them to come to your garden isn’t easy, but there are things you can do.
Something as simple as putting up hanging seed dispensers can be enough to get the first steps of wildlife in your garden. It starts slow, but surely enough birds will start frequenting your garden on a daily basis. After a while trust begins to build up and some are even less intimidated by human presence. Before you know it bird song will greet you, squirrels will scamper up your fences and your garden will be complete.
