Circular Driveway
Mass Planting Ideas

While this isn't your basic residential front yard landscaping project, it is a great example of a few of the principles of landscaping such as balance, repetition, simplicity, symety, and mass planting. I felt it would be a good addition here and especially for those who may be looking for ideas for landscaping circular driveways.

This design really is a better example of perfect balance and repetition of planting. Eveything down to the trees have been duplicated on either side of the dividing line. And the dividing line has been placed direct center of the building. Again, for a circular driveway, designing like this can take a lot of the headache out of coming up with a design.

Thought and consideration has been given to the planting ideas for the bedding plants. The center display row is planted with varieties that are taller than the outside plants. The varieties being of a neutral color, they will generally fit with most planting schemes without a lot of thought about matching plants and color theory.
