Gardens with plants and other types of foliage are great things to enjoy during the sunshine but have you ever considered basking and relaxing in a moon garden?

Moon gardening is quite simple, as there are plenty of choices for gorgeous milky white and silver flora. With a little bit of planning and preparation, your moon garden can be all a glow in no time. Limelight Hydrangea, White Fringetree, Wormwood, Angel’s Trumpet, Jasmine, and naturally, Moonflower are all great choices for a lovely moon garden.

Pick a spot that has easy access in the dark. Try scoping out a small space in the backyard where plants will grow during different seasons. You need some sun, so keep it simple.

Most moon garden plants are highly visible because of their white blooms, but try experimenting with yellow, as well. It can give your moon garden a softer look than stark white.

Don’t skimp on smells and sounds. A moon garden is a peaceful place where you can take in beautiful scents of fragrant flowers and relaxing sounds of a water feature.

Moon gardens are another great way to enjoy plants for anyone who appreciates the soft, natural beauty of the night.
