Some plants can grow quickly and out of control if they're not kept in bounds. By keeping plants in bounds, you can keep them from growing too tall or too wide, and from crowding out other plants. You can also keep them from overgrazing nearby vegetation, which can reduce the quality of that vegetation.
There are many plants that can be used in a landscape with complementary colors and textures. Some examples of plants with complementary colors and textures include: One plant could have brightly-colored flowers, while another adjacent plant has leaves which are green or brown. Another example of complementary plants is those with strong textures. One plant could have rough bark, while another adjacent plant has soft leaves.
Container gardening is a versatile way to enjoy your garden without spending a lot of time tending to it. Focal points in your container garden can be filled with colorful flowers or succulents, making it easy to enjoy your plants without having to spend hours weeding and watering.
Organic gardening refers to gardening methods that use organic, non-chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Organic gardening can help improve the soil and keep pests at bay.
Plants need a specific amount of space to grow, depending on the type of plant. For example, a houseplant needs less space than a tree or bush.
Adding accents to your garden can really help to make it more unique. You could add sculptures or benches to create a more unique look, or you could change the type of plants that are in the garden. Whatever you do, make sure that your accent pieces are tasteful and coordinate well with the rest of your garden design.
