When you plan to remodel your home garden, the next important step is to find a suitable and reliable landscape design contractor. This is not a task to be carried out on your own. Certainly you can have a design and a plan in mind but you also need the right tools and expertise which can only be acquired through a professional landscaping contractor. Like any other remodeling jobs, a landscape contractor also relies on a design to follow when transforming your property.
Many homeowners already have ideas in their mind about how they want their property to be displayed. A landscape design contractor usually welcomes their input and develops a computer generated 3D landscape design. Sometimes you might need to pay a separate fee for the landscape design created for you. In other case the whole cost might be inclusive in the overall contract cost.
Landscape Design
What makes a landscape design truly stunning is your imagination combined with the interpretation of your thoughts by the designer. Contractors are the specialists, so they might not draw a design exactly as narrated by the homeowner but they may take bits and pieces and develop a mature final design that will reflect your imagination and other design elements transformed into a design marvel. The design depends on the space you have. There are many striking garden designs developed in an area no bigger than 10 feet by 10 feet. They key is creativity combined with a strong sense of elegant designing.
Tips for Landscape Design Ideas
Following a set of guidelines, basic landscaping can be easy. But one should know that landscaping is a task much different than home remodeling. You need the right tools and the right supplies.
Continuing Color
If you are living in a region where you get all four seasons then most probably the only color your will get in winter is green. You will need to plan your plantation keeping this in mind. Greenery in autumn & winter is only possible with having evergreen trees in place. So you need to get the supplies as soon as possible in spring so that it lasts until winter. There for it is important to get color into the property as soon as possible in the spring and make it last until the snowfall.
Diversity
Diversity is very important. Nobody likes just the green in their garden. Your garden must be designed in a way that it has enough all season green plantation combined with colorful flowery plants that keeps your garden filled with color for most part of the year. In addition, having diverse types of plants and flowers will attract different species of birds and helpful insects that will be of service to the health of the garden. Also add plants and herbs like garlic and rosemary that have a tendency to fend off harmful insects.
Borders
Bordering a home garden looks beautiful. You can do that with an asphalt driveway, a concrete patio, sidewalks and fences. But they are hard to mow and even in the best lawn conditions look bland. In contrast cutting out a swath along these paths and planting short shrubs is another great way. This is not only make a beautiful entrance but also make mowing the lawn much easier.
Maintenance
Gardening is not something that everyone likes. In today’s fast pace life most of the people don’t have enough time to take over the task in routine, while other simply don’t like the work. For those who love to have a beautiful garden but don’t have time to maintain it can acquire annual maintenance services from a professional landscape contractor for a nominal fee and keep the garden blossoming all-round the year. For others there are low maintenance options like shrubs and hardscape. Precast-concrete block retaining walls the yard can be terraced and colored pavers and other hard materials can take the place of lawn and large garden areas.
Vegetable Gardens
Since the evolution of organic farming concept, many homeowners now understand that the price of the food on their table is tied to the price of the fuel it takes to get it to the stores and is not even organic in itself. With increasing fuel prices, the price of vegetables follows and the health factor remains low. When you have a spacious garden or a backyard you can easily produce your own fresh and organic vegetables and seasonal fruits. This plantation not only adds color to the yard but also the seasonal variety keeps your garden blossoming all-round the year. The blossoms in spring are followed by the red tomatoes, yellow squash and green peppers. By farming at your own home under your own care, the health benefit of the food you eat is unparalleled.
Landscape Features
Designing a landscape design can hold many prominent landscape features. One of the most prominent ways to get a feature in the garden is an arbor. Decorating the arbor with a species of climbing plants taking the arched structure, makes it a beautiful eye catching feature in your garden. Other than this, there are other beautiful features like a small fountain, a small pond or a small artificial waterfall made of a rock structure.
