Do You Have Bad Luck With Plants? You Can Still Have A Terrace Garden!

‍The thought of starting a NYC terrace garden can be intimidating – especially if you’ve never been able to keep a house plant alive or have never gardened before. But don’t despair! Gardening is a very forgiving art form, particularly when you have the guidance of an experienced urban garden designer. Working with a professional, especially at the beginning of your gardening adventure, is a smart way to ensure your terrace garden will look great. So much of creating a great urban garden is understanding the environmental conditions available to you, and selecting the plants that will thrive in those conditions.There are strategies to create micro-climates in urban gardens to allow for plants that require special conditions, such as a humid environment or protection from the wind. Your urban garden designer knows what those strategies are, and can help you implement them so your NYC terrace garden will thrive.
