Perhaps you fancy Landscaping an Exotic Garden?
If you have imagination, sketch it roughly and
don't forget to think of levels and drainage. You're almost in the Lansdcape
busines.
If you don't have imagination (yet) then
get some books from the resources suggestions below, look at the pictures and get
some garden design
ideas from those that have done it!
I label myself as a specialist in exotic
garden landscaping. Buying succulent clippings and zeroscaping is my new
passion.
Here at Landscaping by Landman we like to
have a lot of different Agaves in our plans for exotic garden landscaping as well as
Aloe.
In fact we use Aloe quite frequently
as it is one of our standbys for exotic garden landscaping. Of course a lot depends on the
property. See this cottage style property and immediately my mind says 'wild'. Would you
agree?
The Cacti that I use in my exotic garden
landscaping include ferocactus latispinus. The Ferocactus
latispinus have heavy hooked spines are fascinating to touch. I don’t use this one in
exotic garden landscaping at home with children because if you don't use care while touching the
ferocactus latispinus, they will rip the flesh clean off your hand. Be sure to take care
please.
Another one of the Cacti that I use while I am working on exotic garden
landscaping is the trichocereus bridgessii monstrose. This is a rare monstrose form of
bridgessii. This Cacti forms numerous cucumber shapes with long
spines.
In my exotic Landscaping by Landman business, I
also like to use a group of plants in the Crassulacea family. The Crassulacea family
has exotic plants in all parts of the world from the hot and dry desert regions to the cold and
moist alpine locations. These plants are blessed with a hardy nature and enjoy the widest
appeal among plant collectors.
Euphorbias are great in the exotic garden landscaping business. They have a
great looking grassy appearance and can also tolerate a few degrees of frost. The
antisiphilitica comes from Mexico and grows really well almost anywhere where there's some
sun. One thing though, watch out for snails. See a Euphorbia here on
the right.
My favorite plant in the Crassulacea family has to be the Aeonium "Plum Purdy". It is
actually the first exotic plant that I used in my garden landscaping
business before I added exotic to the description. I really like the deep reds and the slight
fuzziness on the leaves.
I have one client of my exotic garden
landscaping business that insists on a flower bed full of Echeveria elegans. They do look
really pretty when they are in bloom. The plant forms rosettes about four inches across that
eventually clump. They have a turquoise color and the blooms are white. They are very
pretty in a lot of different arrangements I’ve designed . Want to have a landscape company
.
