Create a Patriotic Garden Space

This year, I'm going to create a patriotic garden space in my tiny backyard. We moved from a home with a fairly large yard to a new home with a very tiny garden area. Although I miss my big backyard, I want to make the most of the space I now have and create a meaningful, spirit-filled garden.

I usually garden mainly for function, with lots of veggies, herbs and berries. But this year, I feel like growing something that is just simply beautiful.

I saw a photo of a victory garden recently and I knew that I wanted my garden's theme to be patriotic, so I started searching for flowers, deocorations and ideas to make it happen. I hope you enjoy some of the things I found here!

This garden gnome rallies support for our troops!

I love the way this adorable garden gnome wears camo in support of our troops!

I have the perfect place for him. Wouldn't you love to have this little guy showing off his patriotic spirit in your garden?

Every garden needs a garden gnome. And I can't wait to see this one guarding mine!

This patriotic garden sign would look amazing on the side of a garden shed or hanging on the gate to your patriotic garden.

The flag is designed in classic Americana style and displays a banner that states, "One nation under God".

Jim Shore is well known for his artwork which is inspired by American folk art.
