Formal Garden Design Ideas

While formal gardens demand their own unique conditions, areas, and personalities, some of their designs and shapes can be an inspiration for creating landscaping ideas and designs in other less formal styles and applications.

And while other design styles are not generally symetrically balanced, they often exhibit a balance that is reflective or influenced by formal gardens.

So even if you're not interested in designing a garden or landscape like this, some of the ideas and shapes in this directory may still be inspirational and instrumental in creating your own landscape design.
