Lasi cards, beauty-coquin-worthy bouquets and chocolate’s beribond boxes are often a symbol of romance, especially around 14 February. But when it comes to garden, romantic expression can be sub-wider. This can mean a single solitude alkov or an array of intimate nook, or it can focus on the fairy-tale flowers or foliage from the deepest forest. It can be eccentric, mysterious or something else. See how the dream blooms, green -greenery, winding paths, fountains and more have made these five yards true romantic. Tell us in the comments whether any idea can help your yard speak your language of love.
