Wednesday’s #Design Inspiration

 

Charles A Beard once said, “When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.” That’s one big plus of cloudless but cold January evenings. If bundled up enough, one might try to count the brilliant but endless stars. But garden lovers might be counting the days until the first blossoms peak out from the earth rather than counting January stars. So while we’re slugging through the cold and snow, let’s discuss an often overlooked landscape feature that is actually hard and unmovable. It adds, not detracts from the landscape during these winter months. It is the hardscape and it’s one to plan for now.

Hardscape is the one element to consider when adding to your landscape plan. Here are just some samples of how hardscape can appear on its own or within a well-thought out design.
