Lawn Design Tips

Use these tips to make a statement with your lawn so it will be a key element of your landscape's overall design.

Hedge
 

Create a Frame

Just as a great frame can enhance the picture inside, the right edging can accentuate your lawn for a stunning display. Take a cue from this dazzler -- a boxwood hedge planted in a zigzag fashion acts as a dramatic accent for a lush green lawn. Red coleus planted in the pockets of the hedge heightens the drama.
