This plant combination offers a wonderful variety of textures and form. Lomandra 'Breeze' is a tough grass-like plant that thrives in the toughest conditions in both sun and shade. The Dianella variegata 'Tasmanian Tiger' offers a lovely texture with its variegated foliage and brightens shady areas. The succulent Echeveria agavoides 'Lipstick' provides a nice edge to the concrete pavers. Elfin thyme is planted between adjacent pavers. All plants have low water needs.

Street Side Parking Gets a Beautiful Makeover

Roundtree Landscaping, Inc

Streetside parking can often take it's toll on your front yard or easement. when parking for guests is limited on narrow streets, sometimes you need to make it easier and more attractive for visitors to park. Cars parking on the street in front of this home had worn down the front yard lawn. We wanted to create a hardscape space adjacent to the street where cars could safely park without damaging the lawn. We also needed to create a safer area for the kids to play in the front yard. We redesigned a simple parkway to be both beautiful and match the look of the home. With custom brick paving and a traditional brick and wood fence that offers a picturesque country feel, we turned lackluster into lovely. See the before, during and after pictures below!

Get Inspired by Gardens on Houzz

A lot of the time when you get home from a long day at work, all you want to do is wind down. Where better to do this than in your very own garden at home? If you do it right, a great garden design can send you right into holiday mode. But where to start? There’s so many styles to choose from when it comes to garden design. Whether you want to create a tropical, modern, contemporary, beach style or country garden - or something else entirely - the large garden image gallery on Houzz has got you covered. Get inspired and collect your ideas to narrow down your desired garden style and features.

How to Create a Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes a garden and if it’s appropriate for your climate. You may want to consider adding a deck or other landscaping features, but the plants you choose will mostly dictate your style and what kind of ongoing maintenance is required. Don’t worry if your backyard isn’t very spacious - there are many plants that can thrive even in a small space and allow you to turn your space into a little paradise of your own, regardless of size.

Decide which plants to use

The greenery you choose is critical to your look. For example, if you’re trying to create a tropical garden palm trees and bamboo are your go-to options. Other popular options are golden cane palm trees and fern for ground cover. From there you can add some colour with bright flowers like frangipani, hibiscus or bromeliads. All these are actually quite hardy plants, so once established, your tropical garden is actually quite easy to maintain. Use this structure and apply it to your style. Research which plants you need to set your base for a garden and go from there.

Add some decor

If the plants don’t quite do it for you yet, or if you want to add some extra wow-factor, consider adding some extra features. Even if you can’t accommodate a swimming pool, hot tub or pond, you could look at smaller water features. Simple rocks can also have a great effect, while statues and gnomes will add some extra character. Don’t forget to add some furniture so you have a nice place to sit and enjoy your garden!

If that is the case for you, consider consulting a professional to help you with your garden design.
