As any experienced landscape designer knows, there are seven fundamental rules that guide successful design. For example, a white pool fencing can draw the eye and provide a sense of unity to a backyard space. However, if it is placed in an asymmetrical or off-balanced way, the fencing may appear disorienting and detract from the overall design.
Commercial landscaping requires plants that are durable, versatile, and capable of handling a wide variety of growing conditions – which is why you should take the advice of experts when picking yours out!
