Joys of a Small Garden

Use Appropriate Materials

Opt for top-grade materials in select places. The Salmon Bay pebbles used in this pathway are a good example. Gardener Christine Moore chose them over the less expensive pea gravel because a pathway in a garden as small as this is too prominent not to be decorative.

Moore kept the color scheme restrained and foliage size in scale. She made use of her vertical space with climbing plants. And the fence that encloses her garden is ornamental in its own right.
