A weed is any plant that you don't want in that particular spot. A rose bush can be a weed if it is where you want to put your new gazebo or arbor. Most people won't call the rose bush a weed and they will generally dig it out and plant it in another location or pass it along to a friend. Many herbs often are classified as weeds because people don't understand how useful they are or can be. Too often herbs are not dug up and replanted they are simply just killed off.
Landscape nurseries. The most obvious place to find landscaping rocks is at a nursery that specializes in this sort of thing. Landscape stones purchased from these kind of stores can be expensive, but do come in a wide range of sizes and styles. If money is no object, these stores are the best places to check for fake rocks for your rock garden.
Consider breaking your backyard up into several areas so that wherever your visitors look, they find a hidden gem. Consider adding flower gardens around the perimeters or add flowers to containers to distribute around the patio or deck. Plant a mix of perennials and annuals in a variety of colors. Think about adding a vegetable garden to a sunny area and plant a mix of colorful vegetables. If you have room, add a fruit tree or two.
One of the first things you will want to decide is where you want your water feature and whether you want a fountain or a waterfall. I prefer a waterfall but you will likely need a little extra room for the rocks that the water will flow from. Materials you will need for your water feature are a liner or preformed pond, a water feature pump and some landscape rocks. Basic tools include a shovel and level.
Now this is getting creative. Do you see how one idea leads to more? Posts support many second-story sunrooms. Helicals can support them vertically or tie them back horizontally. Tiebacks lead to other uses. Basement walls often get pushed in by backfill, hydrostatic pressure, freezing, etc. Tie them back with helicals. The same holds true with rock retaining walls, which include wood as well as concrete and block. Sheet piles, often for industrial uses, can be tied back to keep the soil from collapsing or pushing over the sheet pile.
Rocks are not usually thought of in a landscaping design, due to their lack of color and beauty, but they may really make your lawn look much better. Rocks are not a boring landscaping option. They may, in fact, help you to enjoy your lawn much more than a bunch of plants that will take a lot of your time and money to take care of. Rocks can lend a natural look to your lawn and can help it look more neat and orderly than a bunch of unbalanced, dying plants and flowers.
Rock can add drama to any landscaped yard. Rock also reduces the amount of water required to keep the yard looking green. If you live in an area that receives little rainfall decorating a yard with rock, whether it is in spots around the yard or the entire landscape, is a desired alternative.
It might take you a short while just before you could come up with a genuinely awesome garden design so don't be discouraged if things don't end up as good as you would like them to. If the garden design does not turn out to be as beautiful as you would like it to be, improve your design more until you have satisfactory outcomes.
