General information only
The guides share general ideas and information for small outdoor spaces. They are not professional advice. Measurements, costs, plant hardiness and timings vary with your location, climate, building and products.
Before building, drilling, adding weight to a balcony or roof, using heaters or fire features, or changing anything that affects a rental, check the rules that apply to you: your landlord, housing company, building regulations and the manufacturer’s instructions. Use a qualified professional where the work calls for one.
Plants and safety
Some plants can be harmful to people or pets. Toxicity notes in the guides are based on published lists such as the ASPCA and are not exhaustive. If a child or pet may have eaten a plant, contact your doctor, vet or poison control right away, and always follow the label when using garden products. In the US, call 811 before you dig.
Affiliate links and ads
Some links are affiliate links, and the site may show ads in the future. See the affiliate disclosure for details.
Links to other sites
This site links to other websites for convenience. Their content and policies are their own responsibility.
