r/landscaping on Reddit: Narrow Sideyard ideas pls
October 30, 2024 -

Hi I'm looking for ideas on what to do with this small sideyard. This is our only "yard" space as we live in a townhome. Any layout ideas?

Wishlist: Space for a grill Maybe some seating Would like to plant some grapes or plants contained in pots. String lights. Something where my toddler can kind of "go outside" and play. He does love helping with gardening too.

Thank you so much!! I know its a tall order for such a tiny space but would love to get somw ideas/inspo going.
