For instance, if your space is long and narrow, you may want
to attempt to make it appear wider by using paths that tend to
travel horizontally across the space. If the space is wide
rather than long, make garden paths more vertically oriented.
Many people start their growing year with crocuses. They come
in many colors, from the purest of whites to the deepest of
violets, and are perennial plants that you can always count
upon to grow and bloom on their own accord. (So, it will save
you the work of planting each year!) Tulips and daffodils are
also common perennial plants that follow. Once the golden
month of May has arrived, the prospective plants that you
could use to brighten up a garden grow exponentially. With
careful research and knowing how much work you or your client
would like to put it on a yearly basis, you can customize and
design a garden space filled with dependable perennials in a
fixed design, or create a flexible design that can be changed
yearly through planting annuals.

Module Summary
In this module, we covered various methods and techniques for
making effective use of space in small gardens and in
differing nooks and crannies within larger gardens. The clever
use of color, creating linear optical illusions, creating
divides or individual garden rooms can make a small garden
space appear much larger than its actual size.
You learned about forced perspective, which tricks the eye
into seeing things as further away or larger, and ways to
utilize this phenomenon in designing a garden with space
limitations.
