Are there existing shrubs, trees, etc. that you need to incorporate in the design?
Will you be adding a patio and/or outdoor kitchen area?
How much time can you devote to maintenance?
What is your budget?
Privacy Issues
Spruce and arborvitae trees work well in providing needed privacy by acting as a natural fencing. By correctly spacing the trees, shrubs and plants it ensures they will get the nutrients they need and enough space as well to reach their mature size. Mountan Road Landscaping landscapers are truly experts in selecting just the right trees, shrubs, and perennials for your outdoor living space.
Maintenance
You can keep your landscaping low-maintenance by avoiding plants that drop leaves, needles, cones, nuts, fruits and other debris in and around the pool area. Plant them at least 6 to 8 feet away from the edge of the pool.
Problem Areas
By adding boulders, stone walkways, multi-dimensional levels and retaining walls, you can turn unsightly or problematic areas into great functional assets to your yard by redirecting the flow and providing solutions to your issues.
