Terraced house terrace beautifully framed

 In a terraced house garden, you often sit on the terrace as if you were on display. Appropriate planting provides privacy and colorful flowers around the seating area. We present you with two design ideas with planting plans for downloading.

The starting point for our design proposals

Especially in terraced housing developments, the gardens are often located close to one another. A colorful privacy screen provides more privacy on the terrace and separates the individual properties from one another.

Suggestion 1: Romantic rose beds

The classic way to separate gardens from each other is to plant a hedge. An evergreen yew hedge about two meters high shields this small garden from prying eyes all year round. If you have a good relationship with your neighbors, a passageway allows you to share garden tools, among other things.

Roses in particular look great in front of dense green hedges, and not only in large parks

Roses in pastel colors look very fresh in this small area. The apricot-colored climbing rose ‘Aloha’ and the orange-yellow flowering standard rose ‘Aprikola’, which has a pink shimmer, exude a delicate scent. In the beds on the terrace, which are surrounded by a low box hedge, caramel-colored bed roses of the ‘Tendence’ variety set the tone.

The violet-blue steppe sage adds bold splashes of color to the beds . The small, star-shaped, light blue flowers of the woodland phlox shine from the end of April. There is also room for summer flowers such as purple petunias in the small beds. The nice thing about annual plants is that you can try out new varieties with different colors the following year. White cushion asters ensure lush blooms well into autumn.

Suggestion 2: Colorful gravel garden

Two spherical-crowned robinias mark the end of the bed here. At their feet, a bed of various flowering ornamental shrubs with a low growth height is laid out. Compact growing cinquefoils with yellow flowers fit in very nicely. They also impress with their long flowering period from June to September. The pink-flowering weigela with yellow-edged leaves and the spirea bushes with yellow-green leaves and a summer flowering in dark pink are just as beautiful as they are easy to care for.

If you don’t like your green garden border quite so dense, you can also make it a little looser

In the foreground of the beds, the areas are covered with coarse pebbles. In between, the grey-green clumps of the saffron grass , the brightly coloured Iceland poppy and the large pink-white flower balls of the bluetongue leek create a relaxed, seemingly randomly formed community.

The spherical privet in pots goes perfectly with the tall spherical locust trees. However, these spherical trees in pots, which are on the terrace and in the lawn bed, are not sufficiently hardy. They should be placed in a frost-free and bright place over the winter. The care of the beds is limited to pruning the plants in the spring in accordance with the plant’s needs.
