About gardenkinds.com
Most gardening advice online hands you a photo and a plant name, then leaves you to work out the rest. We do it differently. Every guide here covers the parts people actually get stuck on — what it costs, when to plant, how far apart, and what changes by year two.
There’s no single right kind of garden. A courtyard with six pots counts. So does an acre of borders. We write for both, with measurements in metric and imperial, and hardiness zones wherever they change the answer.
