Easy witchy garden inspiration for magical plants and herbs

Summer is in full swing, so we now spend more time outside. And a favorite way for me to get some sunshine is to tend to my witchy garden. In previous years, I never had an entire garden; it was more like plants scattered among various pots around my house. As a result, I found managing each plant and caring for them challenging.

This year, I decided to try my hand at creating a garden bed. Not only did I want to try my hand at making a garden bed, but I also wanted to add my own magical and witchy spin to it.

I got the idea to craft a witchy garden from the book, The Green Witch’s Garden by Arin Murphy-Hiscock. In the book, she gives a bunch of ideas for different types of witchy gardens, and her explanation of an elemental garden was my absolute favorite.

I loved the author’s idea of an elemental garden and wanted to section my own into four different corners, one for each element. So I made a list of each element’s corresponding plants and crystals and headed to my local hardware store to stock up on plants.

Like most practices in witchcraft, your garden should reflect you and your magic as a witch! But, as I built my garden, I found that seeing photos and how other fellow witches created their gardens was inspirational to making my own. So, I hope my images and breakdown of how I put together my garden can also inspire you!

So, here is my breakdown of how I built my garden, categorized by each element and the plants, decor, and crystals that correspond:

Tip!
Some crystals don’t react well with water or sunlight, so it’s essential to do your research before adding crystals into your garden. For example, I placed my crystals on my garden’s perimeter to protect them from water and sunlight.

And there you have it! I hope this little breakdown of my witchy garden helps inspire you to create your own.
