Maximalism
This bed is inspired by the “Maximal” movement. Garden maximalism celebrates a “more is more” mentality when it comes to plants. This small garden uses more modern horticulture design techniques, and a diverse plant palate with big, bold texture and color to maximize the space available. Inspired by the book “Garden to the Max: Joyful, Visionary, Maximalist Design” by Teresa Woodard.
