Romantics are often accused of looking at the world through pink glasses. Maybe this is so, but they see things more interesting and delight themselves with the beauty of this world. But even if you are not a romantic, you can see their charming world by making some amendments in your landscape design. In this article we will tell you about what you should change in your garden in order to give it a romantic look.
one. Create a separate entrance.
Romantically, the garden is a mystery, not an open meadow for everyone and everyone. You need to create a fence and create a separate entrance to your soot. Unlike an extrovert garden, where the gate can be transparent and designated only conditionally, a solid gate is required in the romantic garden that can be seen and touched. The gate should also be on the castle or at least a simple latch. Use softened form architectural – low plastic fence for wood or high wooden fence wrapped in branches of the vine. If at the entrance there is a small flowerbed or gate is wrapped in vertical landscaping, then such an option can be called the most suitable for the romantic garden.
2. Make your paths seductive.
A suitable option will be a serpentine trail, which leads from the entrance to the garden to the house. A kind of riddle and mystery can be ensured by plantings along the path that will create a feeling of a small maze. Each bend should establish a certain architectural shape or plant a high plant that will hide the straight road and force guests to take a walk along a winding path. This will give all visitors to the garden a feeling of a romantic adventure and secrets.
3. Improvise
Romance, usually spontaneous people who love pleasant surprises. Therefore, install arbors, fountains and even a simple table for summer kitchen in an unexpected place by the path leading along the garden. This will turn out to be a pleasant plus of the romantic image of your garden. In addition, behind the thickets of shrub using an impromptu curtain created from vegetation, you can hide a place to solitude.
four. Choose a plant palette.
The choice of plants greatly affects the mood of the garden. For a romantic garden, it is better to choose bush roses, sage, lavender and rosemary. The rose is more than any other flower, embodies the spirit of romance in itself. Her fleshy, softly textured petals stand in a sharp contrast with its prickly trunks. The aroma released by petals will spread throughout the garden, and whoever gets up early, will be able to enjoy the morning dew on the colors of this beautiful plant.
5. Use pastel
Soft pastel colors are best for a romantic garden. They maintain subtlety and contain some secret, which bright red and orange shades will not be able to provide. Focus pastel colors with a certain amount of greenish-yellow and purple colors.
