After a quick and easy way to update your garden? A carefully positioned pot or three is the answer. Tall and tapered or short and shallow…you're spoiled for choice. To help you achieve the best result, we share some creative tips for selection and placement. Outdoor mirrors are another way to enliven a garden, especially in smaller spaces. Placed just so, they can reflect pleasing vistas and create the impression of extra space. We also take a look at the coolest roofing material for an outdoor structure: thatch. This is a practical and stylish roofing material for cabanas, pavilions and tropical-style huts. If you're seeking something that feels cool underfoot, choose natural stone. Of course, stone can be used for more than paving. We take an up-close look at thatching and stone and show you how both materials can be incorporated into the design of a garden.
