People all around the world enjoy the hobby of gardening. They love planting tiny seeds in the soil and watching them sprout into mature plants. Gardening isn t just for adults, however. Kids can plan, create, and maintain their own gardens, too. Gardening for Kids is rich with ideas and instructions for making water gardens, flower gardens, vegetable gardens, perennial gardens, butterfly gardens, and landscape designs. Landscaping designing a garden for a particular space is a lot like creating a work of art. From an ordinary piece of land, you can create a setting that invites people to stop for a minute, rest, and admire its beauty. Follow these step-by-step instructions for selecting a location and designing your garden; adding borders and a dramatic focal point; choosing the best plants for your design, soil, and climate; and caring for your landscaping once everything is in place. Keep track of all your plantings with personalized seed markers you can make yourself. The end result will be an attractive garden space that you can call your own.
