Gardens outside the house give us the space to enjoy the outdoors without leaving our home. But not every home is blessed with a huge backyard or outdoor space. This is especially true for urban housing. However, we do not believe that urban dwellers and those with small backyards should give up having a garden. Here are some stunning and creative small garden ideas and designs to inspire your gardening plans.
