Enclosed Patio
An enclosed patio like this can be enjoyed for most times of all seasons. And possibly due to the added sense of privacy, it just seems to have an added atmosphere of relaxation.
Because it is enclosed and the climate can be controlled a little better, the choice of plants and plant varieties can be broader. While most landscape plants placed on outdoor patios, courtyards, or any garden landscaping can be brought in for cold seasons, there is still a tendency to leave some out due to the added work of doing so. In an enclosed patio like this, you're likely to see and choose more tropical and sub-tropical plants for the area.
In enclosed patios like this where there is less wind, rain, and harsh elements, there is also an opportunity for more garden decor, indoor quality furniture, drapery, and tile work.
