Goth Gardens Are Trending
Goth gardens are in, according to the most recent Garden Trends Report from Garden Media Group. The obsession with "darkness," as GMG explains, extends to an increased interest in historic graveyards such as Atlanta's Oakland Cemetery, calling them "hip hangouts" and even "third places" to gather socially.
"Goth culture lives strong year-round, embracing themes of the macabre, mystical and romantic," says GMG president Katie Dubow. Dark flowers and plants can add a Gothic touch to a home garden, as can ornate wrought-iron structures, weathered stone and stained glass, while pathways through lush growth can be used to add a bit of mystery.
