When this homeowner’s neighbor removed two, two- story-high Ficus trees, her side-yard became baron and sunbaked. Concrete covers virtually the whole area from the house to the property line, but because the side-yard has a lot of foot traffic and serves as a sitting area to the basement apartment, the owner did not want to remove any of the concrete. The solution was to put up fencing to block the view of the neighbor’s house, then upcycle wine barrels and 55-gallon drums into huge planters. The drums are large enough to accommodate a full-sized tree and provide the added advantage of giving height to smaller trees to provide further screening of the neighbor’s house. Everything was painted in bright colors to give the space a cheery Caribbean feel. The neighbor’s tree removal ended up as a blessing in disguise, because what had been a drab trough-way was transformed into a happy patio.

Design ideas for a traditional landscaping in Houston.

This featured project was designed as a contemporary theme with an Asian twist with clean straight lines and right angles to mirror the architecture of the home. We also incorporated many native and adapted species. Highland Landscaping designed and installed the irrigation, drainage, landscaping, and sod for this residential new construction. We installed drip irrigation in as many areas as possible versus the traditional above ground sprinkler system design. The design of drip irrigation, native and adapted plant species, coincides with Highland Landscaping’s mission to provide leading edge water conservation designs. We strive to create robust, hardy landscapes that require very little water or maintenance, and thrive in Texas.
