A Theme garden is any type of garden, (Salsa Garden, Herb garden, veggie garden, etc.) centered around either common elements that relate to each other in a stylistic way. An example of some “Theme Garden’s” are, Nautical, Fairy, Tiny Town, Army Men, Gnome village, Floral Infused, or simply has a theme color distributed throughout or both. A theme garden can be put together for serenity, to focus and inspire both children and adults and more.

- Who do you want to inspire with this theme? Will you have this to inspire your children? Do you want this garden to just look good in your yard and match the other decor? Do you just want to be happy going to your yard and feel like it is a place you want to hang out in?
