As Spring pokes its head and we move towards the summer months, now is the perfect time to think about your garden design. In 2022, you should approach your garden design with purpose. Think carefully about each plant, furniture and pot and what they bring to your space. Here are some popular garden and landscape designs presented to you from a professional garden service. 

Tropical Plants 

A well designed garden can provide you with the atmosphere of a far away and wonderful place in the sun. But what plants best help create this far away and tropical feeling. For example, caladiums come in varieties for both sun and shade. Alternatively, rose mallows are vibrant flowers similar to hibiscus. These varieties are great for that exotic garden  aesthetic. 

Something More Natural 

In 2022, many are opting for a more natural feel to their garden design. Rather than having displays of metal and plastic, more natural materials like stone and timber are taking centre stage. 

Additionally, the use of cement and concrete are also being reduced. Newer, more modern methods of brick laying help to reduce a need for traditional mortar. They also create more permeable substrates  that manage storm water more effectively. 

Reducing Your Carbon Footprint 

Currently, we are facing somewhat of a climate crisis and many are doing what they can to reduce their carbon footprint. In this pursuit there is no better place to start than your garden. By reducing the need for large machinery and by upcycling materials in the garden, you can greatly reduce your impact on the environment.

For many, it has also become a priority to reduce the need for non-recyclable plastic in gardening practices. By reusing pots and only buying products made from biodegradable materials like rubber and wood, the environmental impact of your garden is greatly reduced. 

Summary

There are many new and exciting ways to improve your garden design this year. From tropical plants that transport you to a far away place, to more natural garden designs, there are plenty of options that are trending in 2022. Additionally, environmentally friendly garden designs are becoming increasingly more popular. There are plenty of ways you can reduce your footprint with your garden design such as with the use of biodegradable products.
