Types of Gardens

Gardening can be more than just planting flowers. You can create several different types of gardens: cultivate a themed garden, choose plants that attract butterflies, establish a backyard pond, or even grow your own food!

• Butterfly Gardens
  Plant flowers that butterflies will love.
• Container Gardening
  If space is limited, grow plants in containers.
• Demonstration Gardens
  These Extension gardens showcase local plants and sustainable gardening techniques.
• Fruits, Vegetables & Herbs
  These edibles taste even better when you grow them yourself.
• Organic Gardening
  Composting, recycling yard waste, and using natural fertilizers and pesticides.
• Water Gardens
  Learn about backyard ponds and aquascaping.
