If
you crave the peace and pleasures of a garden as a foil to the
stresses of modern life but lack the time to maintain it in the
traditional manner, the concept of a beautiful garden that looks
after itself is irresistible. Low maintenance gardens can be
created and still be colourful, fragrant and visually beautiful.
Example: The Low Maintenance Garden
In
this garden, the area of paving and brickwork has been softened by
changes in level with the creation of easy to tend raised beds and
raised pool.The dove
grey trellis not only provides support for climbers but gives the
impression of more space, as does the mirror behind the pool which
also lightens a relative dark corner.
