Design Tips for Your Spring Garden Refresh 

Incorporating these plants and tools into your garden is just the beginning. Susan Noles, a fellow Q50 Ambassador, spoke about her experience at the Flower Show, saying, “I was immersed in a vision of pinks, oranges, greens, and blues upon walking up to the QVC® display. I was captivated by all the new spring products.” Mixing colors, textures, and heights in your garden will bring that same sense of awe and wonder to your outdoor space. 

To create a truly stunning outdoor space, consider these expert design tips: 

1. Layer Your Plantings – To create depth and dimension, plant taller plants in the back and shorter ones in the front. This layering technique helps create a visually interesting garden. Mix textures as well to keep things exciting. 
2. Create Focal Points – Use eye-catching plants or accessories, like the Bernini Bari Fountain, to create a focal point in your garden. These pieces draw the eye and add a touch of elegance. 
3. Mix Perennials and Annuals – Combine perennials like Knock Out Roses and SunPatiens with annuals to ensure year-round beauty in your garden. The perennials will return each year, while the annuals will provide vibrant color throughout the season. 
4. Consider Color Schemes – Select plants that complement each other. Soft pastels like the Casa Blanca Lilies can create a serene, calming atmosphere, while bolder colors from Tuscan Gold Sunflowers can energize the space. 
5. Add Personal Touches – Small details like the Hummingbird Feeder or decorative garden tools can make a big impact. Personalizing your garden will make it feel like a true extension of your personality.
