Feng Shui Garden And Landscape Design

Front Yard Landscape Design: How to Create Lasting Curb Appeal
2008-02-14 04:05:00 Front yard landscape design is an essential part of creating an overall outdoor plan that truly showcases the elegance of your home. The plants, hardscape elements, and other design accessories integrated into your front yard play an important role in creating a landscape plan that makes the most of your property. Your landscape design begins as soon as the road connects to your driveway and continues throughout your outdoor space. An effective front yard layout will guide guests from the road directly to your front door with the use of lines, patterns, and other design elements. At the same time, the landscaping of your front yard will set the tone for the rest of your outdoor design. Using Trees, Shrubbery, and Flowers to accent your front yard plant life and vegetation are a critical part of most landscape designs and are just as essential to your front yard. It is important to choose plants and flowers that complement your garden style and the style of your home. There are a fe...
Garden Finials ? A Finishing Touch To Your Landscape Design
2007-11-23 09:53:00 So you have planted all the right shrubs and flowers to make your yard an inviting retreat. It is full of lush colors and greenery and sweet smells. Although it may seem perfect a little something extra will really make it pop. Sure you could go with a garden gnome or two or even a ceramic snail or turtle, but if you really want a little sparkle, garden finials are the way to go.The most common type of finial is the ball finial. Made of stone or copper they can be used to mark the corners of your property or be placed atop picket fence posts for a decorative look. Some round finials have points on top creating an exclamation point in your landscaping design. Their warm copper glow will change to a beautiful turquoise patina as the years go by creating a truly eye-catching spot in your yard.If you want something a little more fun than a ball and a point you can find garden finials in other shapes. Go buggy with a praying mantis one or make your yard a hoppy place with a frog shaped o...

Landscape Design Ideas
2007-08-16 07:12:00 Just like me I am sure you have noticed the yards in front of different houses you drive by. Maybe you see them every morning on your commute to work, or perhaps you live across from someone with an immaculate yard. If you are like me then this should motivate you to spruce up your own yard. There are different looks and styles of landscape design out there today. I would like to discuss a couple of them.When we think of places like Arizona or the desert we think of brown sand and rocks. Some people have taken this idea and plunked it down in their yard. Personally I think it is a great effect! Picture this; you walk into the backyard of a house belonging to a friend, or relative. As you walk around the corner of their house you hear water splashing down. Once you are in the backyard you notice they have a waterfall pouring out from behind a rock formation. Not only is it a pleasant sound, but the appearance of a rock bed may be unusual, which makes it a great idea! Boulders or smal...

In fact, we ask more questions than you might expect-about more things than you might have considered. Just based on your responses, the landscaper bu...
