Practical Homework

This is the fun part! Now we can really get creative and decide what plants, stones, structures to put into our garden. 


Using the plan you created in the previous module start adding the plants and other features that you want to include in your rain garden. 


Remember:

  • Research the plants you add - make sure they are suitable for the part of the rain garden you are putting them in and the general conditions of your garden (soil, sun etc.)
  • Think about colour, texture and massing.
  • Think about what your garden will look like in all four seasons. 
  • Above all create something you like and will enjoy!
