Garden Landscaping Principles
Regardless of the area you live in there are few things that beat the relaxation to be enjoyed during a warm summer's night while in your garden and enjoying the view of your landscaping ideas coming to fruition. It is an unfortunate fact that a project to redo the landscaping of your backyard can cost a lot and requires much planning and hard work if you try to do it in one year.
One simple solution to this is to break up your backyard into rooms and complete the landscaping of each room at a rate of once per year until you are done. This is vital when you are on a budget and your results will also be improved as you are able to focus your time and cash on one area at a time rather than trying to complete the entire backyard at once and for the same budget allowance.
While you may be landscaping one part at a time you will still require an overall schematic for the entire design. You can do this yourself through the use of graph paper and by drawing out the fixed structures on your land such as the house and trees to name a few.
It is at this stage that the plants and shrubs that are present should be evaluated as to whether they are going to become part of the new landscape. You should make copies of your design drawing before making additions as you can experiment with varying concepts. You can use free backyard landscaping ideas from places like magazines and gardens visited.
If you love to host parties then you will want to keep some open space in the yard and plant along the perimeter of the area. If not then you can use the space to create an island bed, walkways or much more.
Here are some ideas you can enjoy:
Plant Screens
If you desire privacy but do not have a fence you can choose to create a screen made with plants. Some of the best choices are hawthorn, arborvitae or any combination to create your private setting and a nice backdrop to your future flower plants.
Flower Bed Border
One of the most difficult parts of creating a border is the selection of the right flowers that are the correct color and height. Provided here is a list of perennials that are great for a six foot wide bed located in a sunny area. This width extends away from the fence or screen fence.
You will need to use 3-5 plants per flower species. A space allowance of 16"-18" is necessary between plants. The space between different species of plants should be 20"-22". Odd amounts of plants are more visually effective than even amounts.
It is an important tip to remember to allow adequate space at the rear of the bed for access. This can also avoid the choking off of the air needed and light required by the plants at the back.
Perennial border recommendations chosen to give displays that last with initial flowers in April and the final set in the month of October:
-Tall plants, back row: Sedum, Rudbeckia, Phlox White, Iris, Veronica Blue, Golden Shower and Picta.
-Short plants, front row: Geranium, Potentilla, Huechera Pink, Aster Dwarf Blue, Sedum Dragons Blood, Achillea and Erigeron.
These may not be the best plants for all climates but you can get assistance in choosing the right plants for your climate zone in the book "The Comfortable Lazy Garden".
Island Bed
An island bed is located in the middle of your yard and encircled by grass. It can vary area according to your imagination and space availability. Plants should be tall in the center and shorter on the edges.
Preplanned Gardens
Preplanned gardens can be a great option for newbie's to gardening. You can get landscaping solutions to landscaping your backyard pond and even your backyard patio. Direct Gardening offers a wide range of pre-planned gardens to help you create backyard patio landscaping designs and much more. It will take the guessing out of plant selection and placement.
