5 Steps To Creating Your Perfect Landscape

By Helen Whitfield


First thing that shall come out your mind before embarking on a landscaping project is the land size of your property, which consists of the main building, front yard, back yard, and sidewalks (if any). The size itself should be based on actual measurement to cater accurate calculation on the availability space. This is important because then you will be able to make rough estimation on what things to put on each part. Otherwise, by in the end of the project, your garden will look empty, or worse, it will look unnecessarily packed and crowded.
Second thing is the determination of the theme that shall be in tune with the exterior of main building. If your house is more like a country side theme, the features for your garden should follow the lead in order to have an intact landscape, such as its hedges, facade, lawn, and driveway. Unless it is carefully designed, the overall landscape will be unbalanced and it costs substantial budget for the restoration project itself.

It is necessitate seeking suitable design based on that theme. There are many references or designs we can google on internet. By simply typing the theme, it displays rows of pictures to serve our requirements. The most important thing we need to pay attention is the detail features. Some features are not apposite with your landscape, not only because of their size, but also their material. Too big or too small feature will unbalance the landscape view, and the material of each feature will synchronize the overall design.

You must carefully pick up the types of plants as well, since some plants demand high maintenance and special attention, for example ferns, polka-dot plant, Norfolk-is

You must carefully pick up the types of plants as well, since some plants demand high maintenance and special attention, for example ferns, polka-dot plant, Norfolk-island plant, and poinsettia. The choice of low maintenance plants is recommended to reserve more energy with less complexity, such as cone-flowers, blazing-star, peony, and globe-thistle. Xeriscaping plants based on their watering need will enhance efficiency for your water usage, as well as add more value to its aesthetic.

The last tips you must know, the choice of necessary items for your garden is in line with the necessary budget you shall spend. The observant collection of items required is not necessarily based on how much money you wish to spend, but it surely depends on the necessities. Smart planning on your expense will possibly lower your budget, and it is for sure highly recommended. So, carefully choose the required items. Redundancy is another word for a waste.
