As practical as it is, planting design is an art.
It is the designer’s task to apply the principles of planting design to form an
artistic composition.
Plants and materials have sensory qualities.
We must coordinate the functional uses of plants with our sensory perceptions.

LightWhat conditions does our site have?
Full Sun, partial sun, partial shade, light shade, full shade, dappled
shade, deep shade

LocationDetermine the best
location.
Where is the garden best viewed?
Are you trying to block a view?
How does it relate to other areas?

StyleGardens should reflect your style
Will they be formal, informal, naturalized, or none
Reflect who you are and “where” you are
Create a mood
Mood is created by color, form, plant selection, light and shadow, movement of the line,
structural elements and art.
Evoke emotions – refinement, graceful, tranquility, wild and free spirited

Scale & Proportion Scale is the relative size of an element or area.
Proportion is the relationship of the
elements’ sizes to each other.
Proper scale and proportion create balance between
positive and negative spaces in gardens.
What sets the scale?House, arbor,
trees…

and reflection off an object.
Analogous colors are adjacent
Complementary or contrasting colors are
opposite
Complementary
Red
Orange

Warm colors – yellows, oranges, and reds are bright, lively and inviting. They feel closer to us.
Colors are either
warm or cool
Cool colors – blues and violets are restful. They give depth. As objects are farther away their colors cool.
![Page 17: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Color ValueValue is the colors luminosity.
Light colors or tints contain more white.
The contrast between light and shade creates depth.
Tints add lightness.
Shades add weight.
![Page 18: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Tints are pastels.
Bright pastels are more prominent
Pale pastels are better blenders
Tints to the back of the garden with finer texture will give depth.
Planting shades with warmer tones, and coarser texture will shorten the depth.
To balance you need more shades than light color

Affecting ColorLight
During the day red, yellow, and orange are most prevalent

Texture refers to the surface quality of a plant.
We can actually see and feel texture.
Fine texture gives depth or increases space.
Bolder textures stop the eye.
For balance you need more fine textured plants to equal a bold one.
![Page 38: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Te x t u r e
There are three types of texture; fine, medium, and
coarse.
Can be found in foliage or branching structure.
Thick tight foliage will have finer texture.
Distance of view should be considered. The farther
away from a plant the finer the texture.

The Physical Properties of Plants
F o r m
Form is the physical habit of the plant’s growth.
Most plants are rounded and more horizontal in shape.
Rounded or horizontal shapes are less dramatic because they are expected.
Vertical forms demand attention.
Plants with strong lines make excellent structural elements.
![Page 41: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Design PrinciplesIt is the designer’s objective to create order in the garden.
It is the underlying structure of the garden.
Formality or informal, natural, etc.
Order through symmetry, asymmetry, and balance.
![Page 42: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Unity
Unity in a landscape design describes the harmonious combination of all the various elements to create a feeling of oneness.
An elusive quality bringing aesthetics and functionality in a whole.
It is achieved by successfully
combining six ingredients:
Simplicity – Variety - Emphasis
Balance - Sequence - Scale
![Page 43: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Simplicity Simplicity breed elegance.
Simple lines, forms and functional designs are always more interesting than complex, hard-to-digest designs. They are easier to focus.
The most important factor for simplicity is repetition - allowing the eye to move through the landscape.
Restrain repetition to prevent monotony.
![Page 44: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

Variety
Variety can be applied to form, color, or texture.
Adds spice and allows the designer to control the mood of the design. Prevents boredom while adding interest.
Too much variety creates confusion.
Strong variety creates contrast, becoming “emphasis”.
![Page 46: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Emphasis
Emphasis draws attention to important features.
Less important plantings take a subordinate role.
Accent plants usually have strong features.
![Page 47: The following presentation has been rated PG.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103100/56813e81550346895da8ad2d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Balance
Subconsciously, we look for balance in everything we view.
Balance can be symmetrical or symmetrical.
Asymmetrical has elements with the same weight.
Symmetrical elements are exact.
Balance is not only seen but felt.
Color and texture can also influence balance.
Balance is 3 dimensional.
Balance can also apply to the depth of view, it must be preserved between the foreground, middle ground, and background.
If unbalanced one view will predominate.

Sequence
or Rhythm
For the viewer’s eyes to move over a landscape in an orderly fashion, a sequence must be established.
A progression of form, texture or color should be gradual, abrupt changes create emphasis.

Bubble PlanBubble plans are general notes and ideas from initial thoughts, criteria,
and demands.
While not detailed, they help
organize ideas into a cohesive
plan.

labeled.
All useful information such as scale, planting
instructions, revision notes,
materials list, are also
incorporated.

A color rendering is
ideal for professional
presentation.
It is also very useful for easy identification of different objects
in the landscape.
