What are the differences between a black garden, a goth garden, and a gothic garden? Are these terms simply interchangeable, or do they hold certain distinct nuances and design elements that set them apart? As someone who's deeply rooted in the goth and alternative subcultures, I've always been drawn to the allure of the color black. Hence, these types of gardens have captured my heart. But what if you don't feel any resonance to the goth subculture, nor the gothic art or historical architechture? Do you still have a goth garden? Let's discuss the unique connotations and inspirations of each type!
A disclaimer: These are my personal perspectives, and I also firmly think it's safe to use any of these terms to talk about a garden that has a bit darker aesthetics.
