Landscape Design for Your Outdoor Space

Are you at a loss on what to do with your outdoor space? Are you struggling to make the most of your garden? Do you find yourself struggling to successfully grow plants, flowers, and shrubs? Or are you finding it difficult to keep a wild garden under control?

These questions and many more are all reasons why you could benefit from landscape design. When we think of the term “landscaping,” we typically think of manicured lawns and perfect rows of shrubs. While this is certainly one aspect of landscape design, it is far more complex than that.

Our Panama City landscape design company will be able to look at your outdoor space and determine how to get the most out of it. We consider a wide range of factors that determine how the finished design will look, feel, and function. Whether you’re looking for a lush, green sanctuary, a garden that grows abundant food, or a space for socializing, here’s why you need our team of landscape designers to achieve it.

Why Are Landscapes Important?

Having an outdoor space is a privilege, one that we must take care to preserve. Harboring nature and its animals and plants is not only beneficial to the environment, it is also known to boost mental health and overall wellbeing.

A well-designed landscape will aid in protection from heat and bad weather, as well as work to reduce pollution and noise. Often, our outdoor space is a place to spend time with loved ones or simply a place to unwind after a long day. However, it can also serve as a functional space for recreational activities and exercise.

In order to receive the full benefits of your outdoor space, you should give it the same care and attention that you give to the interior of your home or business.

What Exactly is Landscape Design?

Our Panama City landscape designers work to rearrange and redesign the features of your land to achieve a more practical and aesthetically pleasing space. Typically, landscaping is divided into two major areas:

Softscape: These are all the components of the land that are living. All your plants, trees, flowers, and shrubs fall under the softscape.
Hardscape: This comprises all the non-living elements. Pavers, firepits, walls, gazebos, pergolas, and sculptures/decorations.

Our landscape designers in Panama City will use both hardscape and softscape elements to achieve a landscape design that stays faithful to the following principles:

Harmony: This is where the different elements are carefully chosen to create the desired theme, look, or feel of a landscape.
Balance: This is important to achieve consistency throughout the entire design.
Transition: Each area of the landscape should flow (transition) seamlessly into the other.
Proportion: This is where the size of the different elements is carefully considered. A great design will ensure that no element looks out of place compared to the size of everything else.

What are the Benefits of Landscape Design?

Landscaping goes beyond making a garden “look pretty.” A well-landscaped yard will serve several purposes:

Add value: The increase in curb appeal that you can achieve with a landscaped space will add value to your home by as much as a whopping 10%.
Privacy and protection: Thoughtfully chosen barriers like hedgerows will add a layer of privacy (keep those nosey neighbors away) as well as serve as a useful windbreak protecting you from bad weather.
Year-round use: Our experienced landscape designer will have thought about the changing seasons and include elements that allow you to enjoy it all year round, not just the warmer months.
Can save you money: Thoughtful placement will add shade in the right places. For example, shading an AC unit can improve efficiency by up to 10%. Installing slow-growing plants will require less water and maintenance. Growing trees and plants that produce fruit or vegetables will provide food for your family.

What Happens When You Hire a Landscape Design Company?

If you’ve decided to have your outdoor space landscaped, the first step is to give us a call. We will come out to the land to assess it and take photos. We will note important things like the position of the sun, soil type, climate conditions, and what is already in place on the land. Then, we will have a discussion with you about what you want from your garden and the purpose it needs to serve.

Based on this information, our landscape designers will create a design for you. Then you have the opportunity to talk through it and make any necessary changes so that you are 100% happy with the work that is to be done.

Once the design has been finalized, the preparations will be made, and the work will begin. Bear in mind that depending on the time of year, the work may not begin right away. For example, winter can make the ground too hard to dig, so our Panama City landscapers will wait until spring when the ground is softer before they start.

Depending on the complexity and size of the job, landscaping can take many months to complete. Smaller jobs may be done in a matter of weeks. You also have to give the plants a chance to bed in and settle. Your landscaper will give you instructions and tips on how best to care for and maintain your beautiful new garden.

If you’re ready for a garden that you can’t wait to go home to, the landscaping team at Palm Brothers is the best option for you.
