Transform your
front walk into a stylish statement by edging it in easy-care plants such as
variegated hosta and boxwood.
Many homeowners think of their front yard as one band of
land between the sidewalk and the home. But make landscape magic by breaking it
up with perpendicular plantings. A curved border, for example, adds a note of
grace and elegance.
Plant a variety of evergreens to keep your yard looking classically beautiful through all the seasons. Choose from a wide range of evergreens, including groundcovers, dwarf shrubs, and large trees.
Lacking height
or grand proportions, small ranch-style homes can sometimes get lost in the
shuffle. Good landscaping gets them noticed. For example, use an ornamental
arbor or fence to call attention to the house and mark the entrance.
Tip: White structures stand out even more
against colorful flowers and a nonwhite home
Some of the best
gardens use layering -- where you combine layers of plants that grow at
different heights.
