Art in Your Winter Garden

Feb 20, 2018 | Gardening, outdoor living

Although this week it feels like spring outside, we wanted to share Calgo Garden’s beauty during our last snow storm—hopefully the last snow storm of the season! Here’s some inspiration for adding art to your winter garden to give you enjoyment all season long.

We created this mood board to show you how beautiful the snow can be. A garden filled with art blanketed in snow is spectacular.

Here are a few tips to make your landscape a winter wonderland:
  1. Use evergreen shrubs and conifer trees to add interest and create a background.
  2. Trees with an interesting branching pattern will add drama.
  3. Incorporate ornamental grasses for a delicate touch.
  4. Plan your hardscaping for outdoor winter entertaining by making a fire pit a focal point.
  5. And our favorite, add a blast of color by incorporating art. Use birdhouses, spheres, glass globes and upcycled objects. Enjoy your winter garden!
 

Thank you to everyone for the love you showered us with during our Valentine Give Away!

And congratulations to our winner – Carol G.!

Calgo Gardens is grounded in the belief that nature, art, and positive energy feed our spirits. If “earth” without “ART” is “eh,” Calgo chooses to nurture earth’s ART. Our style and feel is the result of consciously living our philosophy—harmony by design. eARTh will be alive with posts about Calgo-style garden ideas, plants and flowers we love, do-it-yourself projects, new items from THE BARN—and all the dirt (and fun!) that’s happening at Calgo!
