Fascinating French Garden Design Ideas
When looking at the location of the garden in your backyard, you may wonder if you can improve the garden design with ideas based on a French garden.
One idea is to create a parterre, by placing flower beds around your garden. Most people, keep flower beds and gardens separate. Taking this idea, you can add many beautiful blooming colours around your garden, by surrounding your garden with flower beds blooming at different times of the year.
Other examples to consider include symmetrical and geometrically laid out trees, hedges, lawns and shrubs. An example of a French garden is at the Conservatory Garden in Central Park, New York, with a fountain and a sculpture named Three Dancing Maidens. The fountain is surrounded by flower beds including tulips and chrysanthemums blooming in different seasons.
You can even add some of these ideas to your garden, by placing a water feature and an Ancient Greek statue towards the middle of your formal garden. This, is how you can impress visitors to your backyard, with your French garden.
