ways to spice up your garden.
Gardening is a very relaxing hobby that has tons of
benefits. Gardens
can bring useful bugs, sustain medicinal plants and grow nutritious food for
the homeowner. However, there are also those homeowners who simply want a
beautiful and relaxing space which they can brag to their friends. Designing a
garden, after all, is an art that requires patience and a keen eye. If you’re
looking for ideas on how to do the same, look no further. We have a couple of
examples below.
Topiaries
Topiaries
are very common in modern homes. They usually adorn the entrances to homes and
also abound in the garden. You
can form anything you want into those evergreen plants. Common designs include
geometric shapes, animals and even symbols. How are these shapes made? First,
choose a plant that has a shape close to your desired design. Then, simply use
topiary shears or hedge cutters and trim away until you arrive at the desired
design.
Bridges
Bridges
work great in any backyard that has a small pond. Decorative and real bridges
can be bought online and are also available in some stores. Wooden bridges, in
particular, help complement your garden design especially if you have an Asian garden. Not only are
they unique, they also make nifty spots for pictorials and quick strolls.
Hedge Maze
Hedge
mazes have made popular appearances in media. We see them in The Maze Runner,
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Alice in Wonderland and many more. These
are of course computer generated mazes. What’s more apt in gardens are
miniature versions. These look very sophisticated and can catch the eye of any
visitor you may have. There are all sorts of designs ranging from circular ones
to the basic four-sided ones. If you do go for the circular one, it would look
even better with a small fountain at the centre. That makes it all the more
attractive and luxurious.
Checkerboard Design
Have you ever seen a checkerboard? It’s the one with all the black and white tiles alternating on each other. That sort of design also works on gardens. What you do is get a square area and divide it equally into either 3x3, 4x4, etc. squares. Then, you fill the squares alternately with gravel and the other, you plant with grass. The green and white combination looks absolutely stunning. If you are up for it, you can clear a square portion in the centre and turn it into a picnic area or a small pool.
If you are looking to revamp your garden, you should
consider getting the house inspected and entire property inspected beforehand. Both the
garden and the home might be breeding pests
which could potentially disrupt your garden plans. Preventing this from
happening could potentially save you tons in repair and pest control costs.
