Landscape design can be difficult, whether it requires a complete overhaul or only a few new plantings. There are numerous options and ideas that make finding the best choice overwhelming. However, this video provides a few tips for landscapers. Deciding what plants to include, where they should go, straight or curved paths, and whether to install eye-catching accessories like benches are decisions every landscaper must make.
This article will get a landscaping project off to a great start.
Determine landscaping needs. Determine the goal of landscaping the yard. Will it be a place to grow vegetables or a playground for kids? Draw rough sketches with thoughts of what will go where. Sketches are an excellent organizing tool for landscapers.
Consider the location. Study the sun and wind patterns. Such patterns will determine where some accessories, such as a bench or patio, will go. Carefully analyzing the location and studying patterns can help landscapers avoid common mistakes. Find the focal point. Every good landscaping design has a single or series of focal points. It can be a tree, a sculpture, or a series of shrubs. Finding the focal point is easy because it draws the eyes of the landscaper.
