Share your landscape design and ideas
    #16144708 - 04/26/12 09:42 PM (11 years, 10 months ago)

Share your Landscape designs and Ideas.
You can share whatever you want. Whether it be your home landscape, a cool idea you want to do, or whatever.:smile:
Ethno means more than plants that get me high.

I feel like the way we design our landscape can have an impact on people around us and ourselves psychologically.(your neighbors will love you and give you free stuff)

For example maybe you don't want people walking through your lawn to your front door, so you guide them along a path.
Along that path maybe you calm them with the scent of lavender, jasmine,sage,and rosemary while visually stimulating there mind. By controlling there path maybe you can repel negativity.

This is why I have a mirror on my front door(A door I only use to greet people)so they have to face themselves before they face me.(and to repel bad spirit)

Or put something spiny to keep people from climbing your fence.(blackberries, climbing roses, cactus, etc)

Think of all the senses.

Visual-shapes, arches, circles, triangles,phallus, patterns, colors
Scent-I think there is a science for that? well certain herbs are proven to calm or entice.
Sound- attract birds to hear there chatter.(are there plants that make noise?)
Taste- Fruits, veggies, etc something exotic and new
Touch-Spines to repel(What would be something else)

Other senses?

Maybe your style is random Haphazard chaos, which is its own style.
Maybe stimulate sexual desire with a combination of colors, scents,and certain shapes.
Whatever you want to share is cool. Please don't post anything negative


This is something I plan to do.
I probably will alternate with 2 different cacti and create a door out of recycled materials.

I will post mine once my flowers are ready( especially my morning glories.):tongue:

I hope to see cool stuff here.
Be creative.

AWESOME cactus fence! I think that would be a really cool idea to implement.

I completely agree with you on environment helping to shape overall mood and perspective at the time. All of ^^that^^ was well put, I thought :thumbup:

I thought so too.

Another idea i have is a mushroom fence.

I can can collect oak logs that are already cut for the fence posts. drill holes and inoculate with your favorite wood lovers.

That would be cool. maybe alternate posts with 2 different mycelium. oysters for warm weather and another wood lover for cold weather. That way we will have flushes in different weather.

Maybe train a vine like morning glory to make it look real good.

That inoculated logs idea sounds awesome! You could inoculate with several different colored oysters. Grey-golden-pink and repeat, that would look beautiful, especially in spring, when all 3 species would fruit at the same time! And you'd have a great meal too! Commercial strains have a wide temperature range, they would probably fruit whenever the humidity was high enough, golden and pink spring to autumn, grey autumn to spring.

I love clumping bamboo species as a living fence, its hardy, looks awesome, and you can use the mature poles for diverse applications!!! quite awesome plants to work with

Very good ideas. Right now I am in brainstorm mode.
One day I will have a landscape design business. It will be unique and fun.
This is why I took landscape work for a villa so I could learn as much as possible.

So first my place must become a unique masterpiece and thats where I will start.

Lets keep ideas coming, if you like my idea you can take them for yourself.That is this thread

This is a great idea! When I had a garden, we also had bamboo as a fence on one side. They are especially good as an outer layer, they grow fast and close together, and tall. They can prevent unwanted peeking and animals from entering.
Landscaping can be very fun, I should take more of an active interest in it in the future!

bamboo plants for sure.

Too many to name, so I will just do the big one.
I have always wanted a firetower that I could go up in and hang out, and get high in. Also always wanted a greenhouse with a pool. This is what I came up with. Super baller.

I plan to build a Tower of Newport like structure.

I will have more windows and a roof. I will build a small pool/large hot tube underneath that. I will enclose that and it will be a Tropical hothouse. Next to that will be attached a more traditional greenhouse for my fruit, cacti, entheos and ornamentals.


I will grow hops up one of the sides of it.

Bamboo can be pretty invasive.  You might develop problems with your neighbors.

Definitely something you have to keep on top of, and not something you can plant anywhere as a border.
I plan to keep it isolated at least 25ft from anything else (structure or plant), mulch and dig up below the ground new shoots that develop.
Established bamboo can crack and tear through foundation easily.


Or I would just do small varieties in sunken kiddie pools.

That tower is idea is cool.I would do something like that if I could afford it.

I was thinking of doing something with sunflowers and morning glorys together.Like a circle with a opening for a door.
Then have something to sit on inside.

Or just a border along a fence. I bet the morning glorys would look cool on the sunflowers.

I haven't decided

i have a pool side privacy wall of mexican weeping bamboo in raised flower beds with little recessed love seats in between as a project in the yard. should be nice shady and enclosed once they get established.

also if you are in an area freindly to it citrus trees are great for scent and fresh ripe fruit is :dancingbacon:

aloe can be really cool when clumped in a cool way, always good for digestion and skin care.


digging the ideas OP, similar in how i view my opportunity to shape the feeling of my home and space.

Ever read anything about willow grafting?  They use it for living sculptures, fences, shelters, and furniture.  (I especially like the furniture, whereas my non-metal plant tables tend to decay in the harsh texas sun.  My plastic-modular setup only lasted a year)


If memory serves, Willow is also a source of IBA..  a rooting hormone.


(willows are susposedluy ravenously attracted to water.. possibly enough so to breakwater pipes.  discression should be used)

i just put in passion flowers and hops. eventually, i'm going to build another large greenhouse HERE and have terraced fresh water ponds from my gravity spring. i also want to make a small smoking house out of obsidian boulders. terraced gaedens are coming soon, and a sweat lodge or sauna. a meat smokehouse would be nice too. thick bamboo fences to keep the bears out.

All cool ideas.

I would grow citrus trees but I can pick up 100+ pounds of the best every week for free. So I am blessed with too much already. I have to give alot away or it ends up in the compost. I do have some kind of early fruiting freestone peach and I just got 2 icecream bananas thats also going to provide a shaded kick it area. I have a california woodstrawberry that Im going to let run wild in that area. I also got blueberries too.soon maybe guava and avocado(IF I can get them to germinate)

willow grafting sounds cool. share some pics if u want. I want to see the living table. That sounds hella cool.
An arched walkway would be cool too.

Man I should be growing passion flowers huh.Now you giving me so many more things I want to do.

I'm trying to keep things on a low budget. Its amazing what you can do for free. Most of my landscaping materials were actually free.

Just to let you know clumping bamboo does not get out of controle like regular bamboo. Clumping baboo stays clumped to gether and typicaly grows to be a 4 to 6 foot clump in ten years and is much easyer to remove then the regular bamboo.
