1. POSITIONING
The most important part of gardening is making sure you position plants in the right places. Some plants love the sun, while others thrive in the shade. Some handle a good drenching and others can last with very little water.
Do your research and work out what types of plants will do well in your garden, taking into account soil type, sunlight, water and drainage. You might love a certain plant but that doesn't necessarily mean it will survive well in your garden's conditions.
2. SPACE
Plants need sufficient space to grow so they're not competing to get the nutrients they need. Spreading them out will make your garden look tidier and well balanced as well as allowing the plants to flourish.
The key is forward planning. Always keep in mind where the garden is going, not just what it currently looks like, and plant accordingly. If you've just moved into a property, wait about a year before doing anything drastic to your garden so you can see what it's like in each season. You can then plan what you're going to keep and what you want to dig up and replace.
