How to arrange a place for yourself in the garden: planning methods and simple ideas

  • Jan 16, 2021

Good afternoon, my reader. On any personal plot there is a corner where the whole family gathers. Have fun, chat, barbecue - for such events, the meeting place is always equipped. But not every courtyard has a plot to be alone, to retire and quietly spend time reading your favorite book or just lie down.

We offer you several options for arranging a secluded "place of power".

In the shade of a tree crown

It doesn't take much space to be alone. You can easily find a small plot of 2x3 m. Trees grow in every yard. One of them can accommodate a seclusion area.

To strengthen the soil, remove the top layer of soil and cover it with gravel, lay it out with small paving slabs or boards. On this patch, you can build a small shed, rotunda or gazebo.

Beautiful plastic fences, stones or a simple wooden fence are also suitable for zoning the site. It all depends on the style of your garden. There can be many options. The main thing is convenience and the creation of a secluded space.

Among favorite flowers

For fans of hedges, a secluded spot can be placed in flower beds or an oasis of flowers. This can be a corner near a fence or a small area along it. The flooring is done in the same way as when landscaping a site under a tree. Make a hedge around the perimeter of climbing roses, chic peonies. Lavender and sage, mint and rosemary will have a calming effect. Vases with gladioli will decorate your corner.

Water

At all times, water was considered the best sedative. Next to a secluded corner, you can make an artificial reservoir, put a few fish there and decorate it with greenery.

A small tank, a pool, and even an old tub dug into the ground will make a great pond on your backyard and help you relax. A miniature artificial pond can be planted with aquatic plants: lilies and water lilies. Shopping malls now have wonderful plastic substitutes for real plants. They will look no worse than live ones, but no care is required.

If electricity is supplied to this reservoir, it can be equipped with a small fountain or waterfall.

Modern technologies have gone far ahead, and now it will not be difficult to make your own stream, drops of water will descend on the stones and create an excellent aura of serenity.

A small recreation area can be set up near the reservoir. Install sun loungers or rocking chairs here. Both in the daytime and in the evening you will be cozy and comfortable here. Vases with your favorite flowers will decorate your site. Dwarf conifers, larch trees or small ornamental bushes will look great in this place. Hydrangea or viburnum Buldenezh with their lush bunches can delight you all round the summer.

Do not be afraid to experiment and look for your own options for creating a cozy secluded corner.
