On Monday I was cleaning out my favorites folder and came across a link I had forgotten about. It's the
Virtual Garden from the BBC website. I had a problem using the program on the website but I downloaded it and it worked fine for me that way.
It gives you the ability to sketch out your gardening space and design your own garden by planting trees, bulbs, annual and perennials and placing garden items like benches in your design. The plant selection is limited but I can't really complain because the program is free and you can see your design in 3D and move around your virtual garden like it was a video game complete with fluttering butterflies.
