Inviting Patio Garden Plan

Looking for ideas for a relaxing yet elegant patio getaway? This contemporary, easy-care space will let you spend time enjoying it from the comfortable seats.

Raised beds around the patio’s perimeter allow plants to loom taller and provide more privacy quickly. They also make it easier to enjoy flowers up close. In this design, we aren’t packing flowers in closely together, instead letting each plant’s shape stand out, set off by a clean, simple layer of mulch.  

Featured plants include delphinium, rose, maiden grass, perennial geranium and other easy-care annuals, perennials, grasses and shrubs.

This Inviting Patio Garden Plan performs best in part shade and cold zones 5 to 9.
