An expansive front lawn is nice if you live on a quiet, secluded lot, but on a busy corner lot, you'll need a more substantial planting to create privacy. This L-shaped bed effectively screens the front yard from the street, yet also allows visibility for traffic at both corners. And it looks just as good from the street side as it does from the yard side. The designer chooses landscape plants that are all tough enough to retain their good looks despite the onslaught of car exhaust and road salt. Bulbs that will naturalize and spread, compact shrubs that won't need pruning, and tough perennials and pollution-resistant trees that aren't daunted by a difficult growing site put on a year-round show with minimum maintenance. All you'll need to do is deadhead spent blossoms from time to time to encourage more flowers, and add mulch annually to control weeds and save on watering. Be sure to leave a wide mulched strip at the curb to allow maintenance access from the street side, leave the view open for drivers and accommodate snow piles in cold-winter climates. An attractive landscape along the edges of a corner property not only beautifies the community, but it goes a long way toward creating a peaceful setting where the house and yard have increased privacy from street traffic.

A mirror-reversed set is a printed copy of your house, resulting in the same image you would see if you held the drawing up to a mirror. Everything, including the text, is backward in relation to the original design. These kinds of drawing are typically used to reorient an original plan more advantageously on a site, either because the homeowner prefers it that way or because of limitations of the site itself. Note: Mirror reverse sets are only available with a 5 copy or 8 copy set. With a Reproducible, PDF, or CAD set, you can print mirrored copies locally. In addition: 5 Copy set selected, should only allow 4 mirrored sets to be selected. 8 Copy set selected, should only allow 7 mirrored sets to be selected. |
