Small yard, Big design

by Jackie
(Ottawa, Ontario)

From White Lake Ontario CA. (Glenalee Campground)This landscape has been a working progress since 2007. Created some interest be adding shape to the patio and walkway around the firepit (Still a working progress). Wanted a natural and cottagy look. Added only perennial plants and shrubs along the side of firepit for a summer bloom full of colour. Used a small varity of groundcovers at the corners of this moon shaped flower bed.

Landscaping Small Back Yards
by: John H.

I've only seen a bit of your yard but it seems quite a bit larger than ours. We had a real challenge trying to fit everything we needed into our tiny 20 by 25 foot back yard.
In the end we used a Landscape Architect because we just couldn't figure it out ourselves. In the long run, it was worth it. We got 'almost' everything we wanted. It cost a bit more but the design and finishes were worth it.
I wish you all the best with your 'work in progress'.
