Street appeal, step and plant ideas

vor 4 Jahren
We’ve spent some money in a new driveway, rendering and I am wanting to cover the front step in maybe merbau. I’d love a wrap around step then the front door is level but hubby says we just need to clad it and keep same height as he thinks a step coming out the same width as the chimney/eaves would make a car hard to access side gate.
I’m also not sure what kind of plants would suit front garden. We’ve done natives but have become messy so I’m open to suggestions.. a new timber fence is on the cards too.

vor 4 JahrenHaving a fence would give you great options to create another beautiful living area, I would do a more formal planting, lots of structural plants, sansivera, buxus , birch a water feature , a place to sit, stone grey mulch, merbau decking would be great , I would keep same size as your porch, could look stunning, looks fabulous what you have done so far.

vor 4 JahrenIf you take the step to the position of the chimney, the access will be no narrower than it is currently ( although it does look quite narrow) . I think some mass planting of some structural plants would look good.

vor 4 JahrenFront yard is a mess, a complete MESS!!
Am wanting to do turf lawn after we put in new fence and edge the garden bed out with sleepers.. currently natives and couple of large birds nest ferns. Area gets some morning sun then shaded as its south facing.
What kind of plants are structural? I like large foliage plants..

vor 4 JahrenSomething like this could suit your house, similar to ideas suggested , but I think a more formal look behind your fence would look great. But if you are in a more tropical area the choice ‘s are great for large foliage plants.

vor 4 JahrenHi Kate,
Agave can add structure to the garden and look fabulous planted among large leaf foliage, the smoky grey would blend beautifully with your house, soft colours with a bit of drama looks stunning.

vor 4 JahrenOk we have decided on 600x300 bluestone pavers for the front patio but now need to decide on how to lay them.
Was thinking longways but in a stacked or brickwork pattern? Stacked seems more modern?
