No room for a full blown traditional garden? Small Gardens, Balconies & Courtyards has the answers. When pressed for space at ground level, a green wall is a great starting point. You can have a custom-designed green wall or you can avail yourself of one of the many modular vertical garden systems that are now available. Using potted plants is an equally smart way to introduce ornamental or edible plants into smaller spaces. This has the added advantage that the pots can be used as items of décor. Decorative screening is another way to make good use of the available space. A wall-mounted screen panel can act as a focal point or be used to create privacy. Furniture is another important element and you have an array of compact outdoor chairs, tables and lounges to choose between. We look at all of this, and a whole lot more.
