00:00 Introduction
01:02 The three things that are important when designing your garden
01:33 Tip 1 – make a list of everything you do, use and see in your garden
01:59 Look at the light – where the sun falls
02:13 What’s already on site, in your garden, is very important
03:49 Draw out a rough ‘bubble’ map on a piece of paper
04:19 Tip 2 – think laterally (across the garden)
05:52 Tip 3 – paint fencing, walls or trellis dark
07:04 Tip 4 – plant close to the house
07:49 Tip 5 – plant mainly evergreens in small gardens
09:02 Garden design mistake 1 – don’t ‘centre’ the garden
11:05 Garden design mistake 2 – don’t make your borders too small
