wild gardens
Unmanicured green spaces
Wild gardens are cultivated spaces designed to mimic natural, untamed landscapes rather than formal arrangements.
They feature native plants, meandering paths, and minimal intervention—allowing plants to self-seed and wildlife to flourish.
The aesthetic embraces apparent disorder: Her wild garden attracted butterflies and bees all summer.
The approach reflects ecological gardening principles that prioritize biodiversity over manicured perfection.
