And with many planning to host garden parties and BBQs to make the most of the sun. You might be tempted to give your garden a bit of a spruce up, to make sure it looks its best. Mirror Hack If you're worried about your garden look a little on the small side, we have you sorted. Laura Carter from online retailer Furniturebox has revealed a simple trick to expand your space, without breaking the bank. Laura revealed that to make your outdoor space look bigger, you can hang a garden mirror on the wall, to make it look bigger. "If your patio or balcony is lacking some visual interest, consider using mirrors which you can position against a wall or fence", she said. "Much like they do indoors, mirrors can help to create the illusion of more space and enhance the overall look. "Mirrors are also great if your garden does not receive a large amount of sunlight, as the reflections will help brighten up the space."

Top gardening trends of 2025 Gardening experts at Barnsdale Gardens has shared the top gardening trends of 2025. Matrix planting It seems that a top planting trend for this year is going to be Matrix Planting. In essence, planting in groups or blocks to give an effect of being wild whilst actually being carefully managed. Selection of the plants is essential, to give year-round interest either with flowers, seed heads or frosted/snowy spent flower heads. Some recommend using plants that seed around, but this could make managing your matrix planting harder to keep under control. Chrysanthemum comeback I hope that the humble Chrysanthemum makes as much of a comeback this year as Dahlias have over recent years, because the simple single flowered types, such as 'Innocence' and 'Cottage Apricot' would be spectacular within a matrix scheme. The hardy varieties are so easy to grow in a sunny spot and give such a valuable burst of late summer and autumn colour that would lift any dull- looking border. Blended borders For some time now we have been promoting the growing of veg within ornamental borders and I think this could really take off this year. The choice of ornamental-looking varieties available in seed catalogues is phenomenal and, if managed correctly, visitors to your garden will not even realise that you have veg growing! Must-have tool My secret is out. I discovered the Hori Hori a couple of years ago and now it seems so is everyone else. It is such a well-made, adaptable tool that can be used as a trowel or weeding tool in the garden that and everyone I speak to who have used it absolutely would not now be without it. Enough said! But if you want something larger, then the Al Fresco Round Sectioned Mirror at 60cm is reduced from to £5 with a saving of 50%. But you need to hurry because there is very low stock available. More Garden Ideas You can add a "chic" touch to your outdoor area with this budget Home Bargains decor buy. The item has been described as a "stylish and eco-friendly" fixture which "combines warm white LED lighting with a chic planter". And another Home Bargains solar light levels up your garden for just £2.99. And Aldi's £44 middle aisle buy is perfect for garden parties this summer – and it's cheaper than the Lidl version. And another Aldi buy will give your garden privacy for just £19 this summer. A 79p item that's already in your cupboard can also help elevate your outdoor space. Also another Aldi garden ornament makes you feel like you're on holiday at half the price of the B&Q version. You can also add five food scraps to your garden for flourishing flowerbeds.
