Flower beds are found in most gardens, however big or small your outdoor area, or whether gardens are situated at the property's front or rear. Various types of plants can be used when planting borders to add colour, texture from different foliage types or even to produce food if growing vegetables. Specialist garden designers in Croydon can create planting scheme plans so your property exterior can be enhanced, whether gardens that encourage wildlife are your priority, colour from leaves and bark in winter, or schemes that give year round colour. For gardens that are easier to maintain, shrubs and herbaceous plants can be used, or specimen tree planting to provide focal points.
If you have children, a child friendly garden will likely be a priority. Experienced gardening specialists in Croydon can focus on this when creating garden designs, whether you want a child play area or construction of play equipment, or choosing surfaces that are non slip for paths to avoid slipping when wet. Boundary fencing can be erected with fence posts keeping children inside boundaries of your garden, and ponds or water features can be protected to reduce danger to children when outside.
Water can be an attractive addition to gardens, whether you want a garden pond to house koi carp or goldfish, or attract wildlife, or to provide the sound of water with a fountain. Many types of water feature can be selected, from sunken containers with lights and fountains, to metal or glass shaped features for cascading or trickling water. Water features that are self contained are best for terraces and patios, but period homes with large gardens can often be suited to water features that are more extravagant, such as fountains spouting from animals or stone statues gathering in pools or troughs below. Croydon gardening specialists can design and install water features acting as centre pieces in gardens.
Decking is commonly used to provide a garden feature which looks attractive and provides seating areas. Many people choose decking for outdoor entertaining and stand garden seating and barbecues on it. Colour can also be added with planters. Alternatively, built in wooden troughs can be an integral part of the decking design, or construction of pergolas over the decking can be done so trailing or climbing plants can be grown over decking or wood struts can be hung with hanging basket brackets and planters. Balustrades can be attached around decking, with a range of spindle designs to select from and wooden gates matching the designs can be built in too. Different wood types are also available, and tanalised timber can be chosen to prevent wood rotting, or stain can be applied.
Wildlife friendly gardens are becoming increasingly popular, with features that attract wildlife being incorporated more often. This often includes plant species that encourage wildlife through natural food source provision, such as nectar rich flowers for butterflies and bees and plants that provide seed heads for small birds in autumn and winter. Further benefits can be provided by ponds in gardens, giving amphibians like frogs a home and providing bees with water for honey generation. Wild corners left for wildlife can be excellent, giving natural homes for insects or hedgehogs who can eat slugs. Garden pests can also be controlled naturally by encouraging natural predatory bugs like lacewings and ladybirds.
