Landscaping Coatbridge

Decal Scotland provide landscaping services to the Coatbridge area.

For those with a small garden, landscaping area 2 might seem a lot trickier, almost redundant.  But with the right help, there is a ton of things you can do with even the smallest garden to make an enjoyable outdoor space.

For starters, you can use height to compensate for a lack of ground space.  From trailing plants that grow up trellis to vertical gardening ideas, you can use the walls, fences or hedges around the garden as a backdrop for something interesting or practical.

Even with a small garden, you can still create areas and use things like bamboo screens, trellis or foliage walls to separate them.  Rather than making the garden seem smaller, adding these dividers makes it seem bigger as you can’t instantly see everything from a single vantage point.

Square paving has the effect of making a garden seem smaller but if you pave diagonally, it has the opposite effect.  Diamond shapes make a garden look bigger as does using a mixture of shapes and sizes, even broken slabs.  Anything that doesn’t look too regimented and square can help the space look bigger.

Finally, go bright with your plants and look to attract wildlife to have the most natural and interesting garden.  Add a bird feeder, insect stations, create access points for hedgehogs and choose plants that butterflies love.  If you want an intimate feel to the garden, go for plants that are reds and yellows while go for cooler colours to make it seem bigger.
