The layout of the garden plot is a designer!

All owners of garden plots see themlandscaped quite differently. And the reason is taste preferences. Some people dream of a good crop of vegetable crops, others - about the English lawn. For someone important for aestheticism, for someone - practicality. Therefore, the planning of the garden plot begins with the choice of the design style. At the same stage, the owner decides whether he will entrust the improvement of the territory to professional landscape architects or rely solely on his own resources.

Style trends in landscape artthere is a rather large number, but to create a landscape with their own hands, sustained in a single artistic appearance, will be problematic for a layman. With the exception, perhaps, of the landscape and utilitarian styles of decorating the garden. However, additional knowledge will still be required.

The layout of the garden plot in the landscape styleis very popular now due to its naturalness, asymmetry and maximum approach to the natural landscape. Groves, streams, field of field flowers, thickets of bushes - all these are distinctive features of this style. The terrain is not leveled, and sometimes even supplemented with artificially created embankments and depressions. Selection of trees, bushes and perennial plants takes place taking into account their harmonious combinations with each other and the surrounding landscape.

In this layout, there is often a lawn, alpine hills, rockeries and solitary trees.

The simplest is the layout of the gardenplot in a utilitarian style. In fact, it's just a rural garden, cozy, not requiring complex care, in which there are fruit trees and shrubs, beds with spicy herbs or medicinal plants. As an ornament, mixborders, planted with perennials, are used. Plants are chosen simple, "rural", without pomposity. Only roses can be planted as a decorative accent.

To the utilitarian is the Dutch garden,which has much in common with rural. The layout of the garden plot in this case is free, as a rule, divided by a house into two halves. The smaller part of the plot (in front of the house) is the so-called ceremonial garden.

There is always a parterre lawn -the pride of the owners. As a fencing usually used hedge. There are very few trees in this garden, and preference is given to dwarf forms. The second part of the site, which is located behind the house, is assigned to a vegetable garden where ordinary fruit and vegetable crops are grown.

Nevertheless, the improvement of the garden choicestyle direction and plants does not end there. Creating a landscape on the site - a lot of laborious and laborious work. It is also necessary to divide the territory into zones, to think over the most convenient road-and-path network, the availability of water reservoirs and small architectural forms, the location of communications (power and water supply), as well as irrigation and lighting systems.
