Path surface as a reflection of the architectural style - this is how it works

The successful front garden design reflects the architectural style of the house. This premise is expressed, among other things, in the choice of the road surface. The following variants have proven their worth in practice:

• Light gravel with treads made of natural stone slabs in the Mediterranean front yard
• Plaster made of matching color concrete or natural stone for a modern flair
• Polygonal slabs, framed by ornamental grasses for an easy-care front garden

In the near-natural front garden, imaginative home gardeners like to use a combination of bark mulch and self-created concrete stepping stones with cheerful, colorful mosaic patterns.

Please ensure that the access path in the direction of the entrance door has a minimum width of 120 cm so that two people can easily pass each other. Side paths may be limited to a width of 50 to 60 cm.

Framing the way decoratively with plants - this is how it works

When colorful flowers and perennials line the path, your guests will feel warmly welcome. Filigree grasses, flowering ground cover or low hedges are also suitable for cleaning up a path in the front garden to match the chosen garden style. The following types and varieties perform the creative task with flying colors:

• Evergreen, maximally knee-high hedge with boxwood balls (Buxus sempervirens)
• Crested sedges (Carex comans 'Frosted Curls') alternating with permanent bloomers, such as pelargoniums (Geranium)
• Star moss (Sagina subulata) as a ground cover to form fluffy cushions in stone joints

There is a front yard on the North side of the house, shade-friendly plant beauties are required here. Purple bells (Heuchera) or small species of hostas (Hosta) give a path in a poorly lighted location a representative appearance all year round.
