If you have an empty
terrace with no planters this is an exciting time because we can choose the
styles you like. The planters, soil (several bags) gravel for drainage
and then the plantings (trees, shrubs, flowers etc.) are the biggest
investment.

| Private Terrace garden by New York Plantings |
Sunny, shade, privacy, the
view from inside the home, taking care to not block a special view, color all
year, interesting color and the style you like are some things to think about.
With a large terrace you
can even have a couple of different styles or "rooms". Dividing
the terrace for a secret garden and one area for entertaining or family.
Maybe you like to grow
some herbs or vegetables too.
Drip Irrigation is very
important. No way can anyone hand water this and expect to have a nice garden
or most times it will not live. Vacation and other things come into question as
babysitters never can water how you water.

New York Plantings Irrigation and Landscape Lighting have
many yrs of exp with automated drip irrigation installation in NYC and Long
island area.
Lighting in the taller
trees is good too to creating a warm inviting feeling like a lounge or park
like feelings.
The corners can have large
planters and trees. Corners are always wasted space and the best opportunity to
add focal points and you can afford more space in corners of your terrace or
rooftop garden.

Consider at least 3 large
trees and with large terrace a simple hedge is good. Against the walls is
sheltered and we can even have some climbing roses, FIG trees and other
delightful plantings.
Making a plan: we can make
a top down view on paper so that you know exactly what you are getting.
