SUMMER is just around the corner and it’s a race against the clock to get your garden looking its best for having people round. And if you are feeling self-conscious about the size of your outdoor space, panic not. Experts have revealed their top tricks to making gardens and patios appear “bigger” and look more expensive.

Garden gazebo experts at Gazeboshop have pulled together a spring gardening guide of some low-effort jobs to tick off in the coming weeks. Here are five tasks that are guaranteed to transform the look of your outdoor space..



. To keep your mood boosted during the unpredictable British weather , plants play an important role in lifting your garden. Early bloomers - such as crocuses - come in a variety of pinks, oranges, yellows, blues and purples, which are ideal for adding brightness and warmth to your garden.

These plants not only look beautiful in bloom, but are also perfect for attracting pollinators. Darker colours on the other hand - such as reds - will do the opposite and actually detract pollinators from your garden so avoid this shade if you want your space buzzing with wildlife. Helleborus are another great addition to plant in your garden this time of year.

With their green, pink and white blooms, these flowers will help brighten up any day - especially if you’re planning for a BBQ and get met with rainfall instead! If you’re trying to achieve an expensive-looking, stylish garden but are worried about spending a fortune, gravel is an ideal.
