A well-designed garden not only beautifies your home, but also improves your quality of life. Having a green space, however small it may be, can be a haven of tranquillity, a corner to enjoy with the family or even a way to connect with nature without leaving the house. But did you know that there are different styles of gardens depending on tastes, needs and climatic conditions? Today we bring you five types of gardens for your home to help inspire you and help you choose the one that best suits your lifestyle and your environment.

1. MEDITERRANEAN GARDEN

Perfect for warm and sunny climates, as we have in many areas of Spain. This type of garden is characterised by the use of drought-resistant plants such as rosemary, lavender, olive and thyme. It is ideal for those looking for low maintenance and a rustic but elegant style. Stones, gravel and terracotta pots are key decorative elements. It also attracts useful wildlife such as bees and butterflies.

2. VERTICAL GARDEN

An innovative and modern solution, especially useful in homes with little outdoor space. Vertical gardens make it possible to take advantage of walls to grow ornamental, aromatic or even edible plants. They can be installed both on balconies and patios and require efficient irrigation systems. They are a sustainable and highly decorative option, as well as improving air quality in the home.

3. ZEN GARDEN

Inspired by Japanese aesthetics, this type of garden seeks harmony, meditation and balance. It uses few elements: sand, stones, wood and plants such as bamboo or bonsai. The design is usually minimalist, with raked gravel paths and small water fountains. It is ideal for those who are looking for a serene and ordered space, where they can disconnect from the daily rhythm.

4. TROPICAL GARDEN

Full of colour and life, this garden creates a feeling of lushness and freshness. It consists of large-leaved plants such as ferns, palms, calla lilies or bird of paradise. Although it requires a little more watering, it can be adapted with hardy species. It is perfect if you like a vibrant, lush and exotic feel in your home.

5. EDIBLE GARDEN

Why not combine beauty and utility? An edible garden includes vegetables, fruits, herbs and edible flowers. In addition to decorating, it provides fresh and healthy food. You don’t need a lot of space: even in planters or pots you can have a small urban vegetable garden. It is ideal for families or for those who enjoy a more self-sufficient and natural lifestyle.

As you have seen, there is a garden for every type of person, space and climate. The important thing is to think about what use you want to make of it, how much time you have to look after it and what style suits your home best. At Font del Llop Village, we are committed to sustainable gardens, easy to maintain and with plants adapted to the Mediterranean climate. Our designs are designed to guarantee the long life of the species, reduce water consumption and respect the natural environment that surrounds us as well as making our owners happy with these types of gardens. Because living in harmony with nature is also a form of well-being.
