Here are examples of formal and informal garden styles, for those of us that are new to gardening.
These photos are not of my garden.

The first 2 images are Formal and the last 2 images are Informal.

Yup, I would say more along the "formal" lines too ~ although not to any extreme. My yard looks more like a garden center exploded in it
