6 Landscape Design Rules the Pros Follow
Layer Your Plants
Use tall trees, mid-size shrubs, and low groundcovers for depth and year-round interest.
Group by Water Needs
Place drought-tolerant plants together and thirsty plants near irrigation. Saves money and time.
Limit Your Palette
Pick 2-3 main colors for a cohesive look. More colors = more chaos.
Add Hardscape First
Plan patios, paths, and walls before plants. Hard elements define the structure.
Know Your Zones
Check USDA Hardiness Zone before buying plants. Wrong zone = dead plants.
Use Odd Numbers
Plant in groups of 3, 5, or 7. Odd numbers look natural; even numbers look stiff.
