The area of land surrounding your home is no longer your yard, it is an extension of your home.

The landscaping and gardening of your yard is now as important as the decorating of the inside of your home. No longer is it, "the garden out the front, clothesline and vegetables out the back with the old garden shed".

Today there is as much designing going into your yard as there is in your home and the same style of design. By that I mean rooms. you can make your garden such a wonderful haven, a place where you can entertain, sit quietly and relax, shelter from the hot winds, just be peaceful in a wonderful setting.

Your garden rooms will cater for your utilities too. The clothesline out the back and the old garden shed along with the compost and rubbish bins can all be housed in the utilities garden room, which will be an area set aside and away from your entertaining and relaxing areas.

These garden rooms are made by the landscaping and plants, they are open to the sky but sheltered from the prevailing winds and neighbors.

It just takes some planning and how you group your shrubs, trees and lay out your garden" rooms. Not only will these garden rooms give you a wonderful place to relax or entertain but they will give you privacy from your neighbors and the passing traffic.

Setting up your blueprint plan for landscaping your yard can be done by a professional landscaping firm, with landscaping software if you are handy with a computer software program or by sitting down, studying your yard and visiting your plant nursery for ideas and planting suggestions.

Once you have your plans in place, the landscaping contractors can be called in to do the heavy parts, they have all the landscaping equipment and can often advise on products, landscaping materials and supplies.

It's a lot of fun and once you get your landscape blueprint in place, if you enjoy gardening, you can take one room at a time, do it yourself or if you are not into the digging and planting, call in the professional landscapers or landscaping contractors to get it all done quickly, so you can get on with just enjoying your new garden rooms.

When all your new garden is completed, you will feel like you have more than doubled the size of your home mainly because you will use these spaces so much.
