As the local lawn service in Westwood, a big part of what we do is help homeowners achieve the landscape of their dreams. Sometimes an outdoor aesthetic that seems quite complicated is actually fairly easy to create with the right assistance and know-how. That’s definitely the case with the Regency Garden trend that’s so hot right now.
What is a Regency Style Garden?
Inspired by romantic British landscapes, Regency style gardens are big on romance. Key to the trend are some structural elements – a pergola, for example, which is basically a gazebo without a roof or only a partial roof; some seating and sturdy tables to hold cups of tea, and, if possible, a water feature such as a fountain or pond.
In terms of planting, luxurious green lawns for walking are essential. Having winding grassy pathways that circle the grounds – or at least the extent of your backyard – is wonderful. Your local lawn service in Westwood can help you establish a strong, durable lawn for this purpose. For flowers, climbing roses and hydrangeas are the must haves. Here ideally you’d want a variety of types, in shades of red, pink and white.
Maintaining the Regency Style Garden
Perhaps you love the enjoying a Regency Style Garden, but you’re not into doing hours of physical labor to make it happen. Here’s where you can really make life easy for yourself by strategically having your lawn service take care of the most difficult and boring jobs.
Case in point: fertilizer. Fertilizing the lawn is essential, especially if you’d prefer to stroll along lovely grassy lanes and not over patchy rocky soil. However, mixing and applying fertilizer is a dirty demanding job that has to happen three times a year. Have the lawn service do it and free up at least six to eight hours of your time to stream your favorite costume drama.
