Landscaping Beds and Gardens

Our projects range from simple gardens and foundation plantings to more elaborate construction projects including retaining walls, fencing, patios, water features, pergolas and more. We work within budget and provide detailed, free estimates.

A flower garden is a general term for any garden where flowers are grown for decorative purposes. Because flowers bloom at varying times of the year, and some plants are annual, dying each winter, the design of flower gardens should take into consideration to maintain a sequence of bloom and even of consistent color combinations, through varying seasons.

 

 

 

 

Creating Deep Rich Flower Beds

If there's one big mistake gardeners make first time out, it's skimping on the width of their beds. Worthington Valley will work you to ensure your gardens are properly sized for your yard. Add flowering shrubs and graceful flowering trees is another reason to start with a wider bed.

In flower gardening, more is definitely more. That mass of bloom you see in a well-planned garden comes from clumps made up of drifts of three, five, seven, or more of the same plant.

A garden full of one of this and one of that tends to look jumbled. Most experts recommend planting all except some of the largest stand-alone plants in odd-numbered groupings or three or more.

Create Unity in your garden

Worthington Valley works with each customer to ensure there is unity in your garden. This means harmonizing colors well, staggering bloom cycles, grouping plantings of three or more and repeating them. Pulling things together can be achieved with hardscaping, shrubs to create a backdrop or using a single specimen to create a natural edge.

Focal Points

One thing often overlooked is a focal point. Worthington Valley has experience in using focal points such as garden sculptures, ornamental trees or shrubs, a garden chair or bench and even a pond or waterfall. These focal points create the most appealing flower garden designs.
