These warm days are getting my garden wheels turning. I know I can't go out and start planting right now...I'm sure a rogue snow storm will strike between now and the end of April allowing winter to keep it's ugly grip on us for just a little longer. So my gardening ideas are really just in the beginning stages, the planning and landscaping part. Last year we moved in right as a 40 day rain storm was hitting....therefore I was not gardening. This year, if of course we plan on staying in our apt, which I'm 90% sure we are, I want to do something special and fun! Our patio is shaded 75% of the time, making vegetable growing almost impossible, but I've been researching shade loving plants and trees, and I'm hoping to add some furniture and feeders for the birds. I've gathered some pics of apartment patio inspirations to help me with my planning.
Hate the furniture; LOVE the plants
While I can't plant in the ground, I was hoping to have Adam build a large planter box.
A trellis could be a little overkill for our patio, but I love it nonetheless!
Ok, so not for my particular patio, but isn't it gorgeous?!
