So you’re thinking to yourself, how can I make my english garden feel tropical? Well think back to those beautiful sunny holidays and where better to relax than at the tiki bar. Tiki huts are a great mix of gazebo shade with the exotic tropical feel with its thatched roof. Tiki huts are expensive. Gazeboes with clever planting can give a tropical feel without having to spend thousands.
What material are gazebos?
Gazebos are usually metal frames with a weather resistant cotton/polyester covering or wooded frames with a tiled roof. Wooden being the more expensive option.
Gazebo on a budget – what colour would give my garden that Mediterranean tropical feel?
Beige or green are great colours to add the natural tones, then bring in the splashes of bright tropical colours with clever planting and outdoor lighting effects.
Finishing Off
Add some tropical coloured plants to your garden to finish off the tropical feel.
