Description
Forget about sticking a pot plant in a corner and watering it once a week. A mini garden brightens every room and lifts your spirits.
Create natural landscapes or mythical lands in miniature in your home. Bring every corner of any room to life with your mini garden creations bursting with oxygen-boosting plants.
As well as giving life to a room, indoor plants help purify air so the air you breathe is cleaner. There’s something magical and mindful about nurturing plants, caring for them and watching them grow.
These modern mini natural landscapes look like living works of art. Although they can be intricate and delicate, they’re easy and economical to make at home.
The course has 33 contemporary mini garden designs which can fill even the smallest corner in any room. Whatever your dream garden contains, you can make a mini version in your home. With the projects in this course, you’ll never run out of ideas.
Release your creative spirit on to the gardening world and grow your own ecosystem to enhance your home.
Bring the outdoors inside and start deciding on your first mini garden from the projects in our online course now.
