1. The important factors that go into a well-designed garden area are land scaping. A garden is going to change for each and every house depending on the needs and wants of the homeowner as well as the site conditions on the property. If the design is done carefully the value of the property will naturally increase.<\/p>\n
2. Some of the critical elements to be considered when planning a garden include drainage, sun direction, winter winds, and views to nearby areas or neighbours. The soil of the site is difficult to amend so we want to look for plants that will do well in the existing conditions. If the site is wet, then it will be necessary to find wet-site tolerant species. For trees we would be looking for species such as red maple and river birch. Heaths and blueberries good species of shrubs for your home garden.<\/p>\n
3. Check the amount sun shine falling in the garden. Every plant likes a certain range of light in a day. For example, planting a red barberry in the shade will often result in a green barberry because of lack of sunlight. {Determine the hours of sun exposure for the site. The required amount of sun light required should be anticipated well in advance.} some views should be hidden while others should be exaggerated while design a home garden. Usually to block a view evergreens would be used. Views can be framed with plants as well.<\/p>\n
4. Study every possibility of the garden in the planning stage itself. Generally the original plan will not even include plant choices but just sizes and textures of what is desired. The decision to have symmetrical or asymmetrical or two beds design should be done in the beginning itself. Plan materials are grouped using the rule of three. Odd numbers of plants are the most attractive unless the total number in a group exceeds seven. {As far as the shape of the bed, the question must be asked if the bed is to be more formal and follow a foundation line or be more curvaceous and informal. The bed designed formal and inline with the foundation or curvaceous and informal.} Curves are more calming and often more pleasing. The beds should shape the lawn, not the lawn shape the beds as most people do.<\/p>\n
5. The final part of the design is the plant material. Essentially everything else leads up to this point. The initial design factors will finally decide the type of plant material used. Having a good knowledge of what is available is very helpful at this point in the design. If the shape and size of the plants have already been decided, it makes this stage easier. seeking the assistance of professionals is not a bad idea. This is where it really comes together and gets exciting.<\/p>\n
