Low maintenance garden with fountain

Fountain and herb garden

The fountain as an eye-catcher in this garden runs through the gravel surface like a mirror. In a long, narrow rust-steel basin, the water reflects the sky. The basin also houses water lettuce with lush bright green leaves. The low-maintenance garden not only offers plenty of greenery to look at, but also to eat. Just around the corner is lettuce head to lettuce head. The vegetable beds, framed squarely by rusty steel, prove that even a kitchen garden can be modern and styled.

Framed by yews

The whole part of the garden does without lawn or flat greenery. The existing paved surface merges seamlessly into the gravel surface, which is lined by yew hedges of varying heights. Yellow flowering daylilies set bright accents and contrast the strict dark green of the yews with their grass-like structure. The high hedges are also interrupted by stone stems. Highlights of the vertical are the green-leaved Japanese maple in the gravel and the hanging Judas tree in the anthracite square planter.

Different materials for a harmonious overall picture

Although many different materials are used in this garden, they nevertheless blend into a harmonious overall picture. The rust-steel basin of the fountain stands out against the lush green planting due to its reddish discoloration. At the same time, the gravel and floor tiles provide a pleasant transition to the planting. The gray planters also help the various plants and trees in the garden stand out.
