The most important trend in 2014, both for interiors and exteriors, is the use of bold colors and contemporary color palettes.

If someone wanted to make one change to their home or garden this year, what should it be?

Overall cleanliness to the interior and exterior. Clean interior and exterior windows. Clean all cobwebs on the exterior, wash the house down and clean out flower beds.

Actually planning the size of the space you're going to plant and doing research on what plants will work well in your garden or flower beds before taking a shovel and digging any dirt.
