Even if you live in the heart of the city, there's no reason why you shouldn't (32) up gardening. We can't all afford a large garden, but we can all create a space where we can follow the seasons. Whether it's a window box, a balcony or a tiny yard, anyone can have the pleasure of looking (33) plants.
A window box is a small box of plants that literally sits outside your window. Here, the choice of plants is what counts. You want a splash of colour all year (34) , so choose flowers that bloom at different times of the year. Daffodils, for example, are beautiful spring flowers and will soon have you looking forward to summer. Their bright colours will also attract butterflies, bringing a touch of life. If you've got a balcony, you've got a little more freedom. In this case, the key is to (35) maximum use of the space you've got available. Put taller plants against the walls of the house, with shorter plants and flowers along the (36) of the balcony. You can also add a water feature; a small fountain creates interest and can have a cooling effect on a hot summer's day. If your neighbours' balcony is next to yours, why not use a fast-growing plant like wisteria to form a natural barrier, giving you more privacy?
Those of you who arc lucky enough to have a small yard can really go to town. Think about how you're going to use it. Do you want to be able to sit and enjoy the sun? Or do you want to be (37) to entertain friends and have a barbecue? Divide the yard into separate areas and plan each one carefully. Garden furniture is very important. A table that folds in half can give you a lot of flexibility, and chairs that fold away also allow you to change your garden to (38) your mood. As (39) as plants are concerned, choose varieties that don't mind a bit of shade, unless your yard gets a lot of sun. Yards often have walls that keep the sun out for long periods and you don't want your careful plans spoiled because a few of your plants start to die.
