Important elements of yard and garden design

A cement walkway that leads straight from the street to the house is rather boring. Consider using different materials such as tile, stone or round wooden disks. Any spaces between the plates can be filled in, for example with gravel. Hedges are popular elements for outdoor landscapes but vines and ornamental grasses are also a staple in modern courtyard and garden design. Miscanthus, pampas grass and carpet grasses of spring oats and blue-ray are important design elements that provide texture and color to the garden. Ornamental grasses are tall so they can also be used as a screen for the patio.
