If you love gardening and want to create a beautiful area full of flowers, you may want to add a rockery area. Rockeries are great for any type of garden, big or small as you can control how large you want it to be.

First you need to plan out where you want the rockery to be placed, corners tend to be a popular option, however you need the area to be exposed to an adequate amount of sunlight for your flower to grow well.

Prepare the area buy digging up the grass and soil, and clearing any weeds. Lay a liner down before adding your rocks and soil, this will help prevent any weeds getting through and destroying your plants. Plant your flowers, climbing plants look great around the edge while Gypsophilia works well to fill in any spaces.

The UK is set for its hottest summer in a century so this is the perfect time to start updating your garden.
