Small Yard Landscaping Design

Small garden landscapes are incredibly detail-oriented. Whether the garden is gracing a condominium, a tiny bungalow, or a rooftop, there is no room for sloppy design or incompleteness. That's because what is neglected will invariably become an eyesore.

Despite their diminutive size, small gardens can also have plant palettes as varied as a larger garden. Small gardenscapes can range from quaint cottage-style designs to modern, upscale looks. To accommodate the limitations in space in a small garden, landscaping designers will often use miniature plant species, dwarf specimens and other adapted materials. A good designer doesn't scale down the same garden plan used for a palatial estate, but rather knows how to emphasize and embody the daintier dimensions of a small outdoor space.

Tropical Landscape Design Ideas that will help you bring the tropics to your own backyard

The most recognizable trademarks of this style are lush, tropical plants and bold colors. Think palm trees swaying in the wind, birds of paradise showing off their bright flowers and lots of healthy greenery. Hammocks are especially appropriate for a tropical garden, just make sure the trees you hang it from are nice and strong.

Tropical Swimming Pool DesignMany tropical style yards feature a swimming pool. These pools usually have a natural look as if you could stumble upon them in the rainforest or jungle. This natural appearance is achieved through the use of faux boulders. Sometimes these boulders can also serve as a waterfall, jumping rock, or even have and incorporated water slide. You can add to the tropical vibe by replicating the sparkling turquoise water of a tropical island beach. This dazzling color is created by selecting a light colored interior pool finish.

A Shade Structure with a Tropical VibeIn an outdoor living space shade is often essential, especially during warm summer months. For a landscape with a tropical theme you should select a thatched roof patio cover. These structures, which have a roof covered in palm fronds or reeds, are known as either a tiki hut or a palapa. To complete the look the columns supporting the structure can be made of real or faux bamboo.

Putting the Final Touches on a Tropical YardMany homeowners often overlook the final touches of their landscaping. Adding just the right outdoor décor will help solidify your yard's tropical theme.

Ideas for Tropical Outdoor Décor:

• A hand-carved tiki statue or Buddha head statue
• Citronella or gas powered tiki torches
• A bamboo fence or bamboo path edging
• Teak or rattan patio furniture with bright colored upholstery
• A colorful Mayan hammock
• A gas fire pit with lava rock filler

Curry Please

I really enjoyed my visit to Cornell Plantations this week, particularly the herb garden, which was still looking good after several hard frosts. Even in the relatively chilly November air, I was overpowered by scent as I passed one of the 17 theme beds. This was clearly the "tussie mussie and nosegay" bed.

Particularly fragrant were the green santolina and the curry plant, Helichrysum italicum, which looks like lavender and smells like dinner--but isn't good to eat.
I remember, however, once buying a different herbaceous plant labelled as "curry plant" in a nursery that smelled similarly savory, but that had rounded little succulent leaves. I haven't identified that one yet.

And then there is the curry tree, Murraya koenigii, pictured above, which is native to India and actually is used in Indian cooking. When I interviewed the great Indian cookbook writer Madhur Jaffrey, she was laughing at the lengths to which she'd gone--driving out to Jersey in order to meet the one not terribly professional guy offering it at the time--in order to obtain a curry tree to grow in a pot. When we spoke it wasn't doing terribly well for her. I remember her telling me about a few pathetic leaves hanging on.

Maybe that's not an uncommmon experience, as this Atlantic blog post suggests. Still, all risks involving dinner are worth taking, in my opinion. I'm ordering a curry tree! It can join my neglected potted rosemary, bay tree, and citrus trees that are dragged in and out of the house every year at some point. I'll let you know how it goes.
