Rhonda G on Aug 24, 2016Small yards can be a challenge to landscape. First, what area do you live so your hardiness zone can be determined? Is the yard long and narrow? What is its orientation(relationship to the sun and direction)? Are you looking for a place to entertain, relax, play? Do you want a water feature (pond, fountain, or waterfall)? Are there pre-existing structures nearby, large trees, fences? What type of sunlight falls on the area at any given time? What do you want in a landscape? And what kinds of plants do you want/like in your landscape? I can help.Helpful Reply
