When most people think of landscaping, swimming pool
landscaping rarely comes to mind. Many times individuals are unaware of the
landscaping that can be done to transform their swimming pool into a relaxing
spot that melts with their entire yard. There are many ideas that can be
applied to swimming pools but you first need to comprehend what types of
landscaping are applied to swimming pools and what is entailed for each design.
Ideas For Swimming Pool Landscaping
Most people with swimming pools desire privacy,
safety, convenience and beauty in their swimming pool landscaping. Plants are
very popular in swimming pool landscaping and are frequently used as a major
part of the overall landscaping design. Plants can soften any harshness
associated with the design of your swimming pool as well as creating shade and
privacy around your pool. You can disguise and hide any swimming pool equipment
with strategically placed plants and make your pool blend in with its natural
surroundings effectively.
You need to be careful when planning your swimming
pool landscaping as large trees can cause debris in your pool. You should take
the time to research and determine the best plants to use and the ones you
like. There are certain types of trees, such as holly, that do not tend to shed
their leaves but are large enough to provide shade and are aesthetically
pleasing.
Fruit tress can also make a mess around your swimming
pool. Besides making a mess with fruit and leaves they also will attract bees
and bugs that may become a nuisance when trying to relax around your pool.
These plants all have invasive roots that will damage the structure of your
pool if they are planted too close.
Patios are great to have in addition to a swimming
pool as they provide an area to relax and entertain within your pool. They are
also a great safety factor as there will be less slipping when entering and
exiting the pool due to slip-resistant surfaces. What better way to enjoy a
summer afternoon then a BBQ by the pool!
As with any landscaping project you need to take time
and research and design your swimming pool landscaping project to achieve the
results you want at the price you can afford. If you are doing this project
yourself you will have a lot to learn and in order to get the most out of the
experience you need to be careful and think before making any decision.
