I was searching through Google doing research for a blog article, when I found this blog, and while not what I was exactly looking for I found it very informative and interesting. I think that having many “mini-gardens” as opposed to one main garden is a brilliant idea as it allows for a more pleasing view to guests or to yourself when you wake up in the morning and look into the garden.

A little faerie village garden would be cute. And yes I know how it is to dream about all the gardens. That’s why I often make a mini garden so I can have a few of the “many ” gardens I want but not have to spend the whole day out in the backyard.

And your grandkids will love a bunch of gardens! My nephews always had fun helping me – more like playing….

And your plants are beautiful Tessa! So healthy looking. I’m envious that my climate is keeping me from setting plants out yet. Denise

I had so many big plans when we purchased our current home 7 years ago. I wanted a 'fort' area for my kids, complete with a sandbox and some other things, a hidden or secret area for me to read or plan, etc. and so many other plans! I don't think anyone ever called them 'rooms' then. I have discovered, over the years, that I'm not really that good at garden design and resources being what they were and are, my ideas were often out of reach. Considering I was really just starting to dive into gardening at that time, I feel my plans were not unreachable (well maybe with our budget- living on one income so we could home school), just more organized in my head than I could ever make them turn out! Now we're are looking at moving- so I'll not be putting too much more money into this house- some day maybe those plans I had will be within reach- and this time it will be one room at a time! I will have grand children some day too, so that area for children that I have in my head, complete with a tiny 'little people' or 'fairy' village hidden amongst the plants will still be important to have in my garden!
