"I have a very small garden on the corner of a road, where I live in a small flat with my husband. My garden is my little sanctuary which I spend hours in. I relax in it as much as possible and receive a lot of feedback about how lovely it is, by many passers by. I have no plan and I let everything grow and come back every year where possible. No colours are off limits. I fill my little space with as much colour and scent as possible and always add plants for butterflies and bees. I particularly like scented Nemesias, lavender and clematis. It is a very important space for me to potter about, enjoy the scents and watch visiting creatures enjoying it all. I also have many water features as I enjoy the sound of running water & it also gives the creatures somewhere to cool off. My garden is my little piece of heaven."

"This small border is at the front of my house. The plants in it are cornflowers, mallow and purple toadflax. The toadflax self seeds and is great for the bees, it is perennial and adds height to a border. There are tall ox-eye daisies which insects such as butterflies, bees and hoverflies like."

"I have made a small garden out of the communal space outside the block of flats where I live. It has taken me many hours to do, but everyone who walks past comments on how lovely it looks. It really brightens up what was a quite a dull area. I have also made a garden in the space out the back of the flats."
