Elements of a Garden Landscape You Should Know About That We Can Do With Great Pride

A garden landscape is an art form in its own right. It requires attention, time and effort to create a space that's both beautiful AND functional for your needs while still being true enough as repayment for all those hours (and money) spent working hard on it.

A garden can have many different landscape features, and it's important to know about them before you start landscape planning.

Here are some of the key landscape elements you should consider for your garden:

Hardscaping: This refers to any non-plant element in your landscape, such as pavers, retaining walls, fences, decks, etc. Hardscaping can provide both function and beauty to your garden landscape.

Softscaping: This term encompasses all the plant life in your landscape, from trees and shrubs to flowers and grasses. Careful selection of softscape elements can create a stunning visual effect in your landscape.

Lighting: Proper lighting is essential for any landscape, whether for functional or aesthetic purposes (or both!). Landscape lighting can help highlight certain features, make your landscape more inviting at night, and even deter burglars.

Water Features: Water systems such as ponds, fountains, and other water features adds a touch of luxury to your landscape. They also provide an excellent place for wildlife to congregate, so if you're looking to attract birds and butterflies to your garden, a water feature is an excellent way to do it.

Important Considerations Before Constructing Your Landscape

Now that you know the basics of landscape design, it's time to start planning your own landscape. Here are several things to keep in mind as you begin:

The shape of your garden space

This will dictate the type of layout you can have, so it's crucial to get this right from the start. For example, a rectangular garden is best suited to a traditional 'lawn and border' design, while an irregularly shaped space might lend itself more to an informal, naturalistic style.

The size of your garden

This goes hand-in-hand with the shape, as the two will dictate how much planting, hardscaping and other features you can fit in. A smaller garden might not be able to accommodate a full-sized pool, for instance. Still, you might be able to install a more modest water feature instead.

The Climate

This is an important factor to consider, as different plants will thrive in different climates. Choose plants that can withstand both extremes if you live in an area with hot summers and cold winters.

Your Landscape Budget

Just like any other home improvement project, your landscape will need to be budgeted for. Be realistic about what you can afford to spend, and don't forget to factor in the cost of ongoing maintenance.

Once you've taken all of these factors into consideration, you'll be ready to start planning and have us landscape your garden to perfection!
