Landscape bridges are garden accents indispensable for landscape designs with garden ponds. What could be more natural than to design landscape bridges over scenic garden ponds?
Smaller landscape bridges than the one shown here are garden accents well worth considering if there's only a trickle of water on your landscape. Landscape bridges can be either functional or purely decorative. But what if you don't have a garden pond on your property? Consider this idea: Artificial garden ponds can easily be created. Start off with just a small one, if such a project seems daunting. For some tips on this project, please consult my article on building small garden ponds. After you get the knack of it, you may wish to graduate to the construction of a garden pond large enough to warrant a larger landscape bridge.
But what if you're not interested in having water on your landscape at all? And perhaps a patio or deck would be too big a project? Well, the next photo may suggest something more up your alley in the way of a hardscape accent.
