Examples of landscaping in Waterloo and other locations where you may have property, are such things as making an unusable hillside or slope into one of beauty and utility. Owners especially who have a small yard may like this way of increasing their functional outdoor space. Whether it be a slight slope or a more sharply vertical hillside, it is possible to expand this area in such a way that it can become beautiful, practical and a valuable addition to your property. Using the space you have to its fullest capacity is important if what you have available is rather small. Because this can be a rather daunting job, one must begin with a plan and then work that plan. Some folks break it down into a three year step program. The first year, what is called hardscaping is worked on. Digging up grass and building a stone or brick patio may be the first step, along with steps to make transitioning from one level to another as easy as possible. Adding a fountain or statuary as a focal point on the patio may be a nice touch for some. Lounge chairs and even a table may be set up on this new area. Year two will be used for planting the bushes and small trees that may be necessary. Creating a lovely view from your new patio as well as the house, will necessitate the use of these plants, in most cases. Keep in mind what may already be there and incorporate it into your design. The final addition of perennials to the scene is the next step in your three year plan. Filling in the areas around and on your patio and steps site, drawing it all together to make a pleasing landscape in Waterloo or many other places, is worth working for.
