What do you want your focal point to be?
Every great landscape design has one or more specific focal points. It may be an exotic plant, a water fountain, or even a beautiful tree. By having a focal point, your new landscape will have a sense of purpose and will draw in one’s attention and eye. Without a focal point, landscaping can feel hodge-podge and empty. Focal point = focus.
Consider Hardscaping
Hardscaping, simply put, is any design element that isn’t a plant. It may be a patio, deck, retaining wall, or outdoor fireplace. And unlike plants, with basic maintenance you’re not nearly as limited by environmental factors when choosing hardscaping materials.
