I've been thinking of adding a medium tree to my front garden for a while now. Thanks for the tip on putting it on the oppsite side to the garage. Now I have the location, I just need to finally decide on what type of tree.

We get a lot of trees like Mulberry, Sumac, and Maple that grow under our fences. And Poison Ivy vines and wild grape vines intertwine up the fence. We think the bird are eating the berries and dropping the seeds as they sit on the fences. What can be done?

Summary What are the key design elements used in this front yard landscape? The key design elements used in this front yard landscape design include: 1. **Reducing the Lawn Size:** The design aims to reduce the size of the lawn while not completely removing it. 2. **Increasing Plant Density:** The goal is to create a denser, greener yard with multiple layers of plants. 3. **Incorporating Purple and White:** The client's favorite colors, purple and white, are featured in the design area. 4. **Placement of Large Trees:** A Japanese zelkova tree is strategically placed on the opposite side of the front door from the garage or driveway to balance visual mass. 5. **Use of Hardscaping:** Hardscaping materials are recommended for the narrow walkway area to make it easier to maintain and visually appealing. 6. **Selection of Plants:** Various plants like lavender, black lace elderberry, candytuft, hydrangea, and apple tree are chosen to create a visually appealing and low-maintenance landscape. 7. **Pathway Design:** A pathway is added along the side of the house to provide easy access to the garden and maintain a clean look against the house. These elements work together to create a visually appealing and functional front yard landscape design. How does the designer balance the visual mass of the garage/driveway with the placement of the large tree? The designer balances the visual mass of the garage/driveway with the placement of the large tree by following a landscape design rule of thumb. When installing a large tree in a front yard, it is generally recommended to place it on the opposite side of the front door from the garage or driveway. This placement helps the yard appear more balanced because the garage or driveway has a lot of visual mass. By placing a large tree with significant visual mass on the opposite side, it helps balance out the overall visual weight of the landscape. In this design, the large tree (Japanese zelkova) is positioned strategically on the opposite side of the front door from the garage or driveway to create a sense of balance and visual harmony in the front yard landscape. What are the benefits of using hardscaping materials in the narrow walkway area? Using hardscaping materials in the narrow walkway area offers several benefits in the front yard landscape design: 1. **Ease of Maintenance:** Hardscaping materials such as gravel or flagstones are easier to maintain compared to plants. They require less upkeep and do not need regular trimming or pruning. 2. **Durability:** Hardscaping materials are durable and can withstand foot traffic and environmental conditions. They provide a long-lasting solution for high-traffic areas like narrow walkways. 3. **Visual Appeal:** Hardscaping materials can enhance the visual interest of the space. They can add texture, color, and structure to the landscape design, creating a more visually appealing and cohesive look. 4. **Accessibility:** A hardscaped walkway makes it easier to access the garden beds and other areas of the yard. It provides a clear path for walking without damaging plants or grass. 5. **Preventing Soil Erosion:** Hardscaping materials help prevent soil erosion in high-traffic areas. They provide a stable surface that can withstand foot traffic without causing damage to the underlying soil. Overall, incorporating hardscaping materials in the narrow walkway area not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the landscape but also improves functionality and reduces maintenance requirements.

I would like to know what about watering system. Is that added afterward? Or maybe it isn’t necessary?
@gardenprojectacademy
Ай бұрын
Hi again! Great question! Typically, the watering system and landscape are designed simultaneously. Since watering systems are buried, they are sometimes installed before or at the same time as the landscape, but it is possible to install them after (though some digging is required). As you mention, watering systems are not always necessary! It depends on what you plant. Ideally, you would focus on plants that are happy to grow without irrigation. In my climate, we have long, rainless summers. New plantings need a little extra water for the first few growing seasons (deeply and infrequently), just until the plants can establish their root systems. I like to use a sprinkler with medium pressure, attached to a hose, and move it around the landscape near the bases of plantings. Many common landscape plants are surprisingly tough, and can tolerate drier conditions than many expect! If you have plants already, it can be worth researching + experimenting 🌱🌱

Is mulch the same as wood chips?
@gardenprojectacademy
Ай бұрын
Hi Beth! Yes, wood chips are a great mulch material! Mulch in the landscape can also be bark chips, shredded bark, arborist chips (wood and leaves etc. all shredded up, my personal favorite), pine needles, etc. It's an organic, undecomposed material that mimics the stuff on the forest floor. Note that compost (decomposed organic matter) does not make a good mulch for preventing weeds in the landscape (though it is GREAT for amending the soil). Compost just serves a different purpose. I like to share this because sometimes the names are used interchangeably, but in practice, they should be used differently. I have a whole playlist about mulch if you want to learn more! Here's one video in particular that talks about different materials: kzitem.info/news/bejne/mHmflpaqs6pehag
