Enhancing your garden with unique landscaping elements

Unleash your garden’s potential with innovative landscaping features that transform ordinary outdoor spaces into extraordinary retreats. In this article, we’ll examine a mixture of unique elements that can elevate the aesthetics and functionality of your garden and how London Tree Specialist can incorporate these features into their landscaping design and maintenance service.

Water features summon tranquillity

Imagine a serene oasis in your garden where you can unwind after a long day. Including a water feature, such as a pond, waterfall, or fountain, introduces a sense of tranquillity and promotes relaxation. London Tree Specialist’s landscaping expertise ensures your water feature is seamlessly integrated into your landscaping design, creating a harmonious environment for you to enjoy.

Fire pits ignite conversation

Picture cosy evenings spent with family and friends around a warm, crackling fire pit. Not only do fire pits provide warmth and light, but they also encourage socialising and create a focal point for your outdoor space. London Tree Specialist can help you cultivate an inviting atmosphere perfect for gatherings by including a fire pit in their landscaping design and maintenance service.

Vertical gardens maximise space

Consider a vertical garden if you need more space or seek a distinctive addition. These innovative structures allow you to grow plants on walls or fences, adding a touch of greenery without consuming valuable ground space. London Tree Specialist’s maintenance service ensures your vertical garden thrives, providing ongoing care to keep it looking lush and vibrant.

Embrace the power of lighting

Strategically placed lighting can dramatically enhance your garden’s ambience. To achieve this, illuminate pathways, highlight architectural features or create a soft glow around your outdoor seating area to make your garden a beautiful space day and night.

How to choose a professional landscaper for your garden design

To help you find the right landscaper for your dream garden, we have put together this list of things to consider:

Write down things you would like in your garden, such as types of flowers, colours, play and seating areas etc. and also make a list of the things you don’t like. Roughly sketch your layout ideas and/or add a magazine picture of the setting you would love to emulate.

Decide on a budget

Armed with notes, ideas and a budget, use local ads, internet and referrals to get in touch with landscapers who know the area and seem capable of doing the job. Good landscapers will be more than happy to show off their work and give references which you can follow up. Visiting gardens and speaking with clients is one of the best ways to vet the contractors.

Based on the same specifications for each, obtain at least three quotes and keep a record of all your dealings.

At this stage you should be in a good position to choose the best landscaper for the job, considering things like workmanship, references, price and who you felt most comfortable dealing with.

Once you are ready to proceed, ask your landscaper for a written contract covering things like insurance, layout drawings, costs, completion date/s and all materials to be supplied and work to be done.

At London Trees and Landscapes we are passionate about gardens and proud of all the great references our landscape team has received. We look forward to hearing from you.
