Garden Planning Mood Boards

Home gardeners can preview a planting style before buying a single plant with Raphael AI.

Describe your conditions first

Start every prompt with the light and climate so the result is realistic: small north-facing backyard, partial shade, temperate climate, then the style.

Styles to compare

1. Cottage garden: dense mixed borders, foxgloves, roses, gravel path
2. Japanese-inspired: moss, maple, stepping stones, raked gravel
3. Wildlife garden: native wildflowers, log pile, small pond
4. Edible garden: raised beds, herbs, climbing beans on trellis

Turn the image into a plan

• List every plant you can identify in the picture.
• Check each one against your hardiness zone and soil.
• Swap anything unsuitable for a local equivalent with a similar shape and colour.

Season views

Add in early spring, in midsummer or in autumn to see how the bed changes through the year.
