Swimming Pool LandscapingYour swimming pool landscaping should be all about adding your own personal touch that takes it from just a swimming pool to your own little paradise. Today's backyard pools come in many sizes and shapes, with the most common being a rectangle or an kidney shape and usually large in size. Surrounding the pool itself is usually concrete or stone in a rectangle or square form. These areas can be quite large and take up a considerable amount of the backyard. Which creates what landscapers call hard lines. Below are some ideas for you to use when landscaping around your pool and softening those hard lines, plus at the same time personalizing your pool. Pots and ContainersLarge pots or containers work well around the pool if you have the space. Fill them with annual grasses such as purple fountain grass and add annuals flowers that trial or creep. Choose a style of pot or containers that compliment your home or nearby existing structures.Landscape BedsWhen adding beds around your pool make sure they are curved. You can make the borders with large native stone to help define the curves.
