Bursting With Colour

Get the look of a reader's exuberant little garden

15 December 2014

Sue Rymer has a garden that’s Packing A Punch! Here are a few of Sue’s tips and how to get the look:

• Decide how much time you have to devote to your garden and then plan accordingly.
• Small gardens can be deceptively labour-intensive, so be prepared to constantly maintain.
• It helps to prune shrubs into standards to allow more space for underplanting.
• Use feeding and organic sprays; they’re good for the garden. I throw in masses of mushroom compost throughout the year. I have no room for a compost heap but I do have a wormery and I’m rewarded with litres of worm ‘tea’ which I first feed the pots with before chucking leftovers around the shrubs.
