Cheap Garden Sheds – What Are Your Requirements?
By Tom B Gee

When you think of a garden shed, you most likely visualize a wooden box-shaped construction situated at the end of somebody’s backyard, filled with all sorts of household paraphernalia and gardening tools. For some, their shed offers a place to do some DIY that is not appropriate for indoors; for others, their shed provides a silence location for them just to sit down and think. Although, these are the most conventional uses and designs, there are lots of other variations of the traditional shed that can be purchased and sheds can be made from a variety of materials and come in a whole range of distinct shapes and sizes. Additionally, sheds come in several price ranges and you don’t have to break the bank to find something appropriate to your needs.

Wooden Garden Bridges – A Beautiful Touch For Your Garden
By Anne Clarke

My garden has a simple Koi fish pond, plenty of flowers, a porch swing and a beautiful pine wood bridge. I believe that wooden bridges are a beautiful touch for any garden pond, Japanese-style dry river bed, miniature garden, or even above your waterfall or reflecting pool.

How To Build A Waterfall
By Dan Eskelson

The number one, most asked question that I receive about water features is “How do I build a waterfall?”

The first advice I give is to visit natural waterfalls or at least look at photos. Don’t try to memorize just how they look…just get a general idea how the water flows around and over the rocks.

The design of your falls will depend on topography, pump and pipe size, length of water flow from pump to falls, pond size and possibly other site-specific factors. If your pond is just 4′ x 6′, you certainly don’t want a large, three foot wide falls – keep the elements of your water feature in scale. Read the rest of this entry »

Landscaping Adds Great Value to Real Estate And Helps You Sell
By Mr Jody Hudson

Over the years several of our clients have had professional landscaping done and it’s amazing to me how little landscaping, can be done for $5-10,000, by a professional Landscaper, and how little value it can add to your home.

Small shrubs, trees, and plantings add almost nothing, or actually nothing at all, to your home value on the open market — until they are several years older! There is another way! Read the rest of this entry »
