A tower of plants – In case you have a smaller garden with limited free space, you can try building a tower of plants which will look very interesting and won’t take a lot of space. For this DIY gardening project you will need to purchase a welded wire mesh cylinder which you can find in pretty much any hardware store. You will have to put it inside a vessel, possibly a pot made from clay, which first needs to be filled with pebbles. After that, you will have to cover the internal part of the cylinder with sphagnum moss which, however, needs to be moist. You have to add some soil and put different kinds of plants on all sides until the whole cylinder is covered with them.

Emily, the stone pathway that was done for those garden designs looks really great. It sure reminds me about maybe talking to some stone pavers on doing a stone walkway for me. Especially during this time of year I’m it will surprise my wife. http://www.hlstoneworld.com.au
