Everyday Garden Guide

Editorial policy

Everyday Garden Guide aims to be clear, careful and useful. We write for curious readers making ordinary garden choices, and we distinguish general guidance from advice that depends on a particular place or situation.

Accuracy and clarity

We check factual statements and take care with names, descriptions and instructions. Articles should explain the reasoning behind a suggestion and make relevant limitations clear. We do not promise that a plant or method will suit every garden, and we avoid presenting uncertain outcomes as guarantees.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions are made for readers, not to satisfy a partner. Any paid, supplied or otherwise partner-supported material is clearly labelled so readers can tell it apart from independent editorial coverage. Partner placements across the site are identified as such, and do not determine our conclusions.

Corrections and illustrations

If you spot an error, please contact us with the article and the detail in question. We review correction requests and amend material when warranted, making meaningful changes clear to readers. Some illustrations may be generated with artificial intelligence; when they are, they are labelled, and are not presented as photographs of real gardens.

Our point of view

A garden is made one choice at a time

A pot of herbs or a busy border can both be a garden. We look at the choices that help yours fit the space, time and interests you have.
