Gardens are the key components to any free space and add color as well as vibrancy to the landscape. Garden design adds a sense of life and growth to the entire landscape and makes even inorganic structures appear more alive. There are many instances where the space available for gardening is not ideal i.e. small space, slopes etc. Thus, one can plan the garden according to the area –
If one has a long and thin space, then it is a big challenge to create an interesting outdoor garden. In this case, apply flowing and curving lines within the boundaries of rectangular outline. These curvy lines will add a delicate as well as attractive design in the form of a shapely lawn, with curvy pathways and borders along the edges. If one avoids sharp edges such as patios and square decks, it will exaggerate the curves within the garden. Thus, create a patio with round edges and choose accessories with soft lines. This will make your long and thin garden look more interesting.
If one has a sloping garden, then it is a big challenge to choose a suitable theme or identify best plants that will suit the garden as well as make it usable. In such case, one can get a good hard landscaping company in to re-shape it. One can divide the garden into a series of mini rooms which can be created by forming the garden into three level areas with the help of terraces. Make sure that each terrace is useful and is wide enough. Each terrace should have a distinct aesthetic flavor and make sure to keep it neat and clean.
If one has a no space at all for gardening then one can practice it on rooftop in the form of rooftop container garden.

On the rooftop, the exposure to sun as well as wind is unrelenting, maintaining moisture levels and preventing dessication is a constant battle. Thus, rooftop gardens can be utilized greatly for gardening.
