TipTip of the Day

 Tip Number: 32Date: 2002-03-01 
Garden SCRAPBOOKS are a great planning tool.
If you have a big pile of garden magazines collecting dust somewhere, consider getting out the scissors and starting your own garden scrapbook!

Scrapbooks can be organized in any way you want, but making sections or chapters on specific gardening projects is one handy way to go about it. A section with photos of garden pathways, another for sunny borders, one with clippings of obelisks and pergolas... the choice is nearly endless.

Your own colour prints can be included at the same time, perhaps with a section for each garden bed. It's a great way to set plans ahead for the busy spring season... using notes in the margins to remind yourself to move that orange poppy away from the pink coral-bells, to divide a special clump of daylilies that you especially like... you get the idea.

Another fun way to use pictures of your own garden is to set photos side by side of the same area of your garden, taken at different seasons. It's a great way to capture the way your garden changes over twelve months of the year.
