Gardening design trends aren’t just for the seasoned pros; keep reading to find out how to bring the top gardening trends to your home.
This year’s batch of gardening trends keep to certain themes. They reflect a growing regard for the planet, the bourgeoning realm of urban gardening, and the technological innovation of conventional gardening systems. Below, we explore four trends that are defining our outdoor spaces in 2020.
Turning to tech
These days, there’s not much that can’t be made better and more efficient using technology. In the garden, this involves gadgets and gear such as grow lamps, garden bots and apps, planting kits and systems, remote irrigation, and self-watering pots.

As people grow increasingly conscious about what they’re putting in their bodies, there’s been a surge in popularity of small-space and small-format vegetable gardening. These types of gardens tend to emphasize function rather than flair. Visit Home Trends Blog to learn more about setting up a vegetable garden in your small space.
