We Love Planting Garden Borders for Garden Walkway

Peer Landscaping of Fort Myers, FLOver the past few weeks Peer Landscaping of Fort Myers has been talking about walkways and pathways through your landscape. Walkways and pathways are hardscape elements that we, at Peer Landscaping, love to build because we want you to be able to walk through your Southwest Florida landscape easily and enjoyably. A garden border at the edge of your walkway, driveway or path offers a functional and striking feature to your yard. Here are some of the reasons we recommend having us design and add a beautiful border to your walkways.

  • It enlivens the senses. Choosing bright flowers or colorful bromeliads invite you to walk your pathway daily to see the beauty. Planting fragrant plants like Gardenia or Almond Verbena or Ylang-Ylang provide a delicious scent that adds the sensory experience of walking through your garden. This is especially true on warm evenings.
  • Aesthetically it integrates the hardscape into the landscape. The starkness of a walkway or pathway merely going through grass before ending at either a door or patio is nowhere near as attractive as one in which flowers or plants have added texture and color to it. Hardscapes definitely look manmade, so by softening the edges of walkways, they are better integrated into your landscape and feel more naturally like a part of the environment.
  • It invites pollinators and local fauna. By choosing plants that naturally attract butterflies, birds and bees, your flower border can provide a habitat and create a diverse ecosystem in your yard.
  • Decrease your yard maintenance. The more flowers and plants you have in your yard, the less grass. Grass demands more water, more fertilizer and more weed and pest control than a well-planted garden. Best of all, less mowing!
  • Variety is the spice of life. While the most common choice for a garden border for a walkway is low lying flowering plants, the truth is, we can use flowers, small trees, hedges, herbs, and many different sizes of plants to create your border.

When we design the borders for your walkways, we will gather ideas from you on the colors, textures and types of plants you love most here in Southwest Florida. You’re going to love our landscape work!
