Considering a landscaped garden?

It’s easy to see why landscaped gardens are so popular. They give outdoor spaces a certain appearance and aesthetic that is neat and calming, creating tranquility right on your doorstep – which is invaluable in such a busy age. But they have other benefits, too, including a capacity to boost ecological diversity as well as potential effects on the price of your home. Here’s how to go about landscaping your garden.

Get the design right 

The first thing to do if you’re thinking of landscaping your garden is to get the design just right. In the eyes of some, one landscaped garden is as much the same as another – and it is certainly true that most landscaped gardens share some qualities, like carefully located edges and well maintained grass or turf. They are, after all, designed, and similar underlying design principles are in use across the sector.

But each garden is of course subtly different: the measurements and dimensions are one factor, while the wishes of the client is another. You may wish to include certain features in your landscaped garden, such as a water feature. Or you may wish to avoid certain design techniques, such as angular edges, and instead install a curved rim to your grass. This is where working with a professional really comes into its own: a landscaped gardening expert can give you the information you need to make effective decisions about your future garden. 

Understand the benefits

Landscaping a garden is often an investment, not least because the benefits of doing so are so big. One possible benefit lies in the impact that landscaping can have on the value of your home: while it’s impossible to predict, let alone guarantee, the impact that a landscape garden can have on a property’s value, some people have estimated that it can give a boost of up to 15%. 

What’s more, a landscape garden can also enhance ecological diversity. The design element of a landscaped garden means that it can be calibrated to provide the perfect balance of naturally existing substances like nitrogen, which in turn allows for improved climate health.
