Horticulture & Gardens Perennial & Seasonal Color Planting Design & Installation
J ust because it is going to turn cold in a few months, doesn't mean your yard has to look dull or lifeless. Believe it or not, there are other plant options that you can use to make your yard and garden look great year round.
So instead of thinking about plants going dormant, it's time to start planning and planting a few things that will stay colorful and look good while everything else is brown and leafless. Actually, anything that remains evergreen throughout the winter months may be considered a candidate for winter interest, but we recommend choosing some plants that flower, have great structure, or produce berries.
Important as is this matter of selection, design and arrangement in the garden itself are equally so. Maple Crest Landscape knows where to plant and how much room we have before ordering plant material. Much of the effectiveness of small gardens depends on how well they serve as elements of decoration in the landscape scheme. Growing plants just for the sake of having them is all right, but it is horticulture, not gardening.
Gardening depends more on the effectiveness of the display than on the size and luxuriance of individual plants. We should be sure, then, that our garden, though small and simple, is fundamentally well designed. It must have background and enclosure. It must relate properly to other parts of the grounds and to the house.
Our Garden Service Includes:
- Perennial & Seasonal Color Planting
- Full Garden & Container Maintenance
- New Garden Design & Installation or Complete Garden Makeovers
Your garden will have balance, unity of composition, and accent, for a garden is not merely a collection of flowering plants. Your garden is more than that. It is an artistic entity, effective for its purpose just so far as it follows out the fundamental concepts of design. Luxuriant flowers are only one factor in its success; there are other considerations of equal, if not greater, importance.
