It’s important to have a garden that addresses the needs of all the senses, and while this might seem difficult on face, with a few extra plants and garden accents, it’s feasible for homeowners on even the most modest budget to have a beautiful and sensual garden. We’ll start with sight, as this is the easiest sense to address in a garden. Make sure to have lots of flowering shrubs and plants, and this sense is taken care of no problem. Sound can be a little bit more difficult, but with some wind chimes and an outdoor fountain, it’s possible to create a tranquil atmosphere without significant change. To address our senses of smell, make sure to have an herb garden near the kitchen window that will waft into the home on the cool summer breeze. Taste can be a difficult sense, however, a few fruits and vegetables, like raspberries and peas, can make enhance a garden’s character. For touch, make sure to choose lots of stone and metal garden decor; a fountain is perfect for this.
With all five senses addressed, a garden becomes a more inviting environment for owners and guests.
