I've been checking out a bunch of backyard permaculture tours on YouTube and am always amazed by UK gardens. They seem so much more vibrant and diverse than what I see in the US. Is it just me, or does gardening culture in the UK really outshine ours? I noticed they tend to incorporate perennials and fruit trees more, use recycled items creatively, and prioritize space better—plus, there's way less grass! I'm inspired to revamp my own backyard to match that UK charm. What do you all think?

The UK has a pretty favorable climate for gardening, getting mild weather and consistent rainfall. It's interesting how historically, much of the land was covered with dense forests before farming took over. It definitely gives UK gardens an edge.
