It is worth noting that care for your own home is much more complicated and costly than the content of the apartment, however, the game is worth the candle.

Having a little fantasy and a small amount of material, you can easily create a small landscaped miracle, which will pleasantly surprise guests and become proud to the owner.

The main stages of the creation of landscape design
Zonal design
The first step must be divided into the functional areas. In one of them there will be a nursery, in another small gazebo for barbecue, in the third - Alpine slide, etc. With a lack of area on the plot, several zones can be combined into one. For example, combine the barbecue area and the playground.
Next, visually release each zone. To do this, use various garden elements: small fences, screen, wooden floral arches. A good option for the construction of borders between the garden zones will be planting dense bushes. The only inconvenience will be that they must be constantly cut.
An excellent choice can be a low straight fence that can be distressed with a small green lawn. It will be nice to spend time with children for playing active games, such as football, volleyball, etc. One of the elements of such a fence can be a wooden arch. It perfectly fit into the overall concept of the landscape. To highlight it, you can plant brightly blooming lianas, such as plenty roses, Clematis and others.
They will help create an intimate corner, closed from prying eyes, where you can safely spend time. To do this, along the perimeter of the zone, sets or garden trils are installed and imprisoned by their curly plants.
On open areas, decorative screens and screens can serve as a good artificial boundary between functional zones. They can also protect against wind and create a shadow in hot weather. The most popular screens made of rattan, vines or bamboo.

Next, place the places for the arrangement of tracks and think about what material to install them. The most popular option has recently become paving slabs. It has a relatively low price if you compare it with a natural stone, simple in laying, unpretentious in operation. Thanks to the use of various dyes in its production, it is possible to lay out an interesting ornament. To save money, it can be put only in the "face of the courtyard". It can also be coated with large asymmetric slices, basalt or granite. Pretty popular recently began to leave small gaps between chunks, which subsequently fall asleep with small pebbles, rubble, or glass granules. It will be not bad to look at the lowland grass planted in these slots, such as a chamber, mounted or rock carnation.
The original track can be created from the cuts of trees. If you decide to cut an old tree, clean it from the branches and branches and saw on the plates with a thickness of 40-50 mm. Then they must be opened with an antiseptic and oil. At the sandy smooth pillow to put dried after treatment, and the gaps swell in fine pebbles or wood sawdust. Such a walkway will quite harmoniously look in the garden.
In places where there are no problems with sawn timber, you can equip the track from the edged board. It is made on the union. Each section is going from bars and boards. Then they fit on the sand pillow. As in the case of drinking, the tree must undergo mandatory processing before laying.
When planning tracks and solestekov, it is necessary to comply with the same rule: the track is closer to the house, the design should be more restrained with minimization, in the gardens, on the contrary, the free view is welcomed with the predominant use of natural materials.
Gardening the most beautiful courtyard
The next stage is one of the most important. The landscaping of the garden or local area is a very difficult task, which often becomes unable to unprepared gardener. In order for the garden's design to be attractive and pleased the eye, it is necessary to carefully choose trees, shrubs, annual and perennial flowers.
Start you need from trees. They form the whole geometry of the garden. The correct location of the trees will protect the house from the winds, as well as create the necessary shadow in the places of recreation. Shrubs will become an excellent natural fence for various garden zones, and flower beds will look like oasis among a monophonic green lawn.
When creating flower clubs from annual or perennial plants, it is necessary to clearly know the exact period of their flowering. Within one "island" is better to plant various variety flowering time so that they bloom alternately, creating a permanent sense of the holiday.
Recently, the use of deciduous ordeorative plants has become popular when gardening. They never bloom, however, the variety of forms and flowers of the leaves can be awesome by avid skeptics. Ferns, geihans, hosts and other plant species received great distribution with this type of landscaping. A special beauty of the garden is given by juniper bushes or small buildings of the Tui, the structure of which allows you to cut different forms of them. More refined gardeners can use Japanese bonsai for such landscaping.
With a small area of \u200b\u200bthe site, the so-called "room gardening" method received great distribution. In this case, the whole of the local area is smeared with tiles. Small trees are planted in some places, and the rest of the area for the summer is forced by plants in pots. At the same time, it is possible to combine the plot with various colors and shades, every time creating a new look of a small garden. If necessary, plants can be removed by freeing additional area. In the cold climate latitudes, the vase with flowers for the winter are cleaned in a winter garden or to the house.
A popular embodiment of the furnace site is vertical gardening. This technique is put in planting curly plants around various supports, which can be both various fences, arches and other artificial elements, and old trees or shrubs.
Lawn. There is an opinion that the care for the lawn does not require special efforts. However, this is not the case. Only permanent hopping culture, regular watering and weekly "exercises" with a lawn mower will be able to make a lawn really emerald.
Decoration of beautiful courtyards garden elements
This technique can be a great step towards the device of the original and unique garden. As decorations, you can use both compositions from several elements and separate parts. The most common elements of the garden decoration are:
- Various figures made of stone, plaster or wood. They can be made in the form of various animals, idols, etc.
- Stony slides.
- Fountains.
Multifunctional elements. The latter can serve several goals. For example, a birdhouse attached to the tree can be both decoration and housing for birds that will become welcome guests in the garden.
Artificial reservoirs in beautiful courtyards
Many owners of private houses wish to equip a small reservoir or pool on their site. If the pool is not decorative, but rather a functional element intended for swimming, then small ponds serve exclusively for a decorative target. They can be combined with alpine slides, on which the waterfall is equipped.
Currently, large containers are cast from plastic. They have a bathroom shape. This container is placed in the dumping pita. Its dotted with a layer of small pebbles, and the side is an average butt. A small slide is laid out from one side of the stone, on the terraces of which beautiful vases with mountain flowers are installed. If desired, you can make a small waterfall. To do this, in the process of creating a water branch, it is necessary to establish a water circulation system. Aside of the reservoir, where the slide will be located, a small place is mounted for installing the submersible pump, the hose from which is hiding inside the slide. When the pump turns on, it takes water from the reservoir and gives up, where it comes from the slopes back. In case of hot summer, it is necessary to provide a water replenishment system that will evaporate on the scorching sun.
Pretty beautiful courtyards of private houses will look if highlight the pond from the inside LED lamps. However, the wiring laying in the place of water is better to entrust professionals. Often, various types of water lines and other aquatic plants plant in such small water bodies. For summer, you can get fish in it. For these purposes there are several types of fish. True, it is worth thinking about where they will live in winter.
