A well-presented garden could add up to £20,000 to the value of your house and up your chances of selling, according to research.
Tool supplier Saxton Blades claims the garden is the most fantasised about area of a property and should be focused on if you're hoping for a quick sell.
Using data from Pinterest, the company found the term "dream garden" was added by users of the platform to almost 1,000 boards.

Last year, a survey by Sold.co.uk found a well-presented garden can add up to 20% to the value of a home.
William Mitchell, a gardening expert from Sutton Manor Nursery, provided some advice about predicted gardening trends for 2023.
He said: "The pandemic caused a rise in interest around our outdoor space and we’re still seeing that trend continue even years after the first lockdown began.
"Eco-consciousness is having a major influence on our gardening and that is reflected in this year’s predicted trends."
Here are some tips based on the predictions for 2023:
Use colour
Colour is vital for gardens too and could prove attractive for potential home buyers. Wildflower seeds - which need to be sown before the start of spring - will add low maintenance pops of colour. Adding pots or vibrant furniture would also work.
Mini meadows
Creating a meadow lawn or using meadow grasses in your garden is great for biodiversity.
Go Mediterranean
One trend that takes inspiration from warmer climates works in smaller gardens too. Using a potted olive, lemon or orange tree or adding some furniture can be good for a quick transformation.
