Things to Consider When Designing Your Landscape

1/4/2023

 

These Site Conditions will Guide you as to what plants you should pick.

Is the site: 
  • Sunny or Shady
  • Wet or Dry
  • Hilly or Flat
Each of these conditions will help you decide on plants you want to pick.  Plant labels will tell you if the plant is suitable for the conditions you have.

Size of Plant
Decide on a layout of plants that provides taller plants in back and shorter plants in front.

Color and Texture
Pick plants that have color provided by leaves or flowers.  You don't want everything blooming in the spring so pick carefully.  Also you don't always need color.  Texture like Oakleaf Hydrangea leaves provide wide areas that turn a crimson color in the fall and then plants with grassy like leaves such as Arkansas Bluestar have a whispy look and it turns a beautiful yellow in the spring.
