Log Cabin Landscaping Ideas
When designing your log home garden, focus on including natural elements. A garden featuring native plants requires less upkeep when unoccupied and can add a sense of wilderness and provide habitat for wildlife – plus reduce costs!
Utilizing native plants, shrubs, and trees in your log cabin garden creates a sense of harmony between home and landscape. Not only are native species less demanding in terms of water requirements; their colors also perfectly compliment the earthy tones found within logs to complete this look.
Garden for All Seasons
A well-planned vegetable garden is an integral component of rustic charm and fresh food for guests at your log cabin. Select your types of veggies to grow, ensure there is ample sunlight, and arrange your plot so as to reap a bountiful harvest when harvesting time arrives!
Make your garden come to life by adding flowers and vines in vibrant hues to it. Blue and purple blooms like hydrangeas, lilies and delphiniums work beautifully against the earthy tones of a log cabin garden, while orange or yellow blossoms such as marigolds or daffodils add extra splash of colour for contrast.
Stone walkways can add charm and convenience for guests visiting your log cabin, while adding sophistication. Before digging in the landscaping of your cabin’s landscaping, always check for underground utilities such as water, gas, or electricity lines that could lead to costly repair or even injury.
