What is Miniature Gardening?
“Big things come in small packages.” It’s so
true…especially when it comes to miniature gardening. It’s just like
life-sized gardening—but on a tinier scale!
Miniature gardens are
made of slow-growing plants--typically ones that are “dwarf” and
“miniature.” The two terms describe the growth rate of the plant, not
the mature size. “Dwarf” means the plant grows 1” to 6” per year.
“Miniature” means the plant will grow less than 1” per year.
The
plants are combined with miniature accessories and in-scale patios to
make real, living
mini garden scenes - that can last up to eight years in a
container
with minimal care. When planted correctly, the plants and trees stay in
scale with each other to create a sustainable, true garden in
miniature.

We have collected a lot of information to share with you! Large or small, in containers or
in-ground, indoors or outdoors, we have figured it all out for you.
