Main Line Landscaping
Landscaping is not as simple as planting some flowers and mowing the grass. Designing a landscape for a new home, established home or staged home takes time, care and thought. Here are some tips to keep in mind when considering Main Line landscaping.
Decide how much effort you want in a landscape.
Are you going to maintain the landscape or have a company do it? Are you going to mowing the lawn, watering the grass and flowers or tending to the weeds? These are all things you need to consider. How much involvement do you want in your landscape. If you simply want it tended and enjoy it having a Philadelphia Main Line landscaping service take care of all of it may be just what you need. If you want a good foundation to start from and then tend it yourself, a simple set up may be all that's required.What type of elements do you want?
Are you going for a minimalistic look or over the top and flowery? Consider a water feature, or something as simple as a bird bath. Perhaps a rock garden and gravel surrounding pathways instead of grass may be a good option for low maintenance. Shrubs, trees and seasonal plants all come into play when designing your landscaping. You may not want every flower to bloom at once and then have no color for the rest of the year. A good combination of evergreen and deciduous may be a good start.Consider colors and contrast.
Choosing contrasting colors such as a vibrant lime green potato vine against the deep red and purple leaves of the Alternanthera Purple Knight plant make a statement all through spring and summer. Tones that set off the color of the house such as pink against brown, yellow flowers against a blue house or red blooms against green. Find the contrast color and work with it, and consider using a lot of it. Your Main Line landscaping won't say much with one or two pink blooms but will stand out with 100 flowers in bunches.Your Imagination - Our Design
