Create Illustions Get a grander look by playing tricks on the eye. For example, widen a path as it rounds a corner to make your yard feel bigger. Or if you have a long, straight path, design it to narrow slightly at the far end... Also loving the plant mix in this garden

Transition Through the Seasons Impatiens are a container garden favorite, and for good reason: They're long bloomers, they have plenty of color variety, and the foliage stays a deep green. They're a great pick to provide summer color after springtime violas fade. A. Impatiens 'Dazzler Pink' -- 3 B. Viola 'Sorbet Blue Babyface' -- 3

Fill It with Color The dainty petals of impatiens gather in this overflowing window box. For a full planting, add a few more plants to fill in any gaps. A. Impatiens 'Super Elfin Blush' -- 4 B. Impatiens 'Pink Swirl' -- 4
