Intro

Hi there, curious minds! I'm Crafty Clover! Let's discover something amazing. What is a theme garden?

The Big Idea

Some gardens have a theme! Like pizza or rainbows. What is a theme garden?

Food Gardens

Step one: Food Gardens. A theme garden is planted around an idea. A pizza garden has tomatoes, basil, oregano, peppers, and onions, and a salsa garden has tomatoes, cilantro, and peppers.

Rainbow Gardens

Step two: Rainbow Gardens. A rainbow garden has flowers or vegetables in every color. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple all grow side by side.

Sensory Gardens

Step three: Sensory Gardens. A sensory garden has plants that smell, feel, and sound good. A theme makes planning fun and connects a garden to what you like.

A Closer Look

Let's take a closer look! Basil and tomatoes. Peppers. Every color. Smell and touch.

Think Like a Scientist

Now, think like a scientist! Choose a garden theme you love. Pick five plants that fit it. Draw a garden bed. Place each plant in your drawing. What would you name it?
