Plant Choices for a Lush Poolside Paradise

• Water-loving plants: Incorporate vibrant aquatic plants like water lilies, water hyacinths, and cattails to add a natural touch to your pool. These plants not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also help maintain water quality.

• Shade-loving plants: For areas around your pool that receive direct sunlight, consider planting shade-tolerant trees and shrubs such as maples, dogwoods, or hostas. These plants provide much-needed respite from the sun and create a more inviting atmosphere.

• Colorful accents: Add pops of color with flowering plants like daylilies, peonies, or hydrangeas. These blooms can be arranged in borders, containers, or around your pool's perimeter.
  

Lighting for a Magical Poolside Ambiance

• Ambient lighting: Illuminate your pool area with sophisticated low-voltage landscape lighting. Choose from in-lite products like stone pot lights, garden lights, pathway lights, and accent lights to create a stunning and inviting atmosphere. Contact us today for a customized design.

• Accent lighting: Highlight specific features of your landscape, such as trees, shrubs, or water features, with strategically placed spotlights or floodlights. This can add drama and interest to your poolside environment.

• Underwater lighting: Create a mesmerizing underwater glow with LED lights that can be installed in your pool. This can transform your pool into a sparkling oasis at night.
  

Hardscaping Elements for a Stylish Poolside Retreat

• Custom Cabanas: Create a luxurious and functional outdoor retreat with a custom-designed cabana. Our skilled craftsmen will work closely with you to build a structure that perfectly complements your home and lifestyle.

• Walkways and paths: Guide guests around your pool area with attractive walkways or paths made of stone, brick, or gravel. Consider adding decorative elements like stepping stones or mosaic tiles.

• Retaining walls: Use retaining walls to create tiered landscapes, add privacy, or prevent erosion around your pool. Choose materials that match the overall style of your backyard, such as natural stone or concrete.
