Garden Arbors – Things to Consider For Your Garden Arbor

Garden arbors are decorative pieces that look great in your yard. Garden arbors give you a way to distinguish your yard from others. For garden arbors to work, placement and decoration are important. Here are some suggestions on what to consider when bringing a garden arbor into your yard.

1)Ask yourself how you want your guests to view the garden arbor. Do you want them to see it as a main entry to the yard? Or as a secret entry to a wandering garden or waterfall? Understanding the purpose of your garden arbor can determine its optimum placement.

2)Are you going to personalize your piece with flowers? A plain arbor can have a clean look, but decorating with flowers can truly bring out an arbor’s beauty. You can customize the arbor to match colors in your yard, and on your house.

3)What other structures are in the yard? If your garden arbor is placed next to a busy fence or large gazebo, it can take away from the individual beauty of the arbor. Make sure your arbor has enough room to be a central piece in your yard.

4)What is the traffic flow in your landscape? If the arbor is placed as an entryway, but the gate is much larger, it can be difficult to move through it. Make sure the scale of your pieces work together, creating an even flow for your guests.

By asking yourself a few simple questions you can make the most of your arbor, and truly customize your yard!
