Fort Worth Landscaping Company can handle Design Delimmas

Fort Worth Landscaping Company (Harvest Landscape) is expert at handling difficult and challenging landscape delimmas through creative and innovative designs.

Dilemma Design – What can be done with my drainage problem? How can I enhance the view from my patio? The Reed’s called Harvest Landscape to ask for help. Their next door neighbor changed the slope of their back yard, which created a drainage problem for the Reed’s. The neighbor’s property was already at a higher elevation than the Reed’s. Instead of the rain water draining along the side of the house, it now ran down a hill into the patio of the Reed’s home. The Reed’s were already thinking about enhancing their backyard. They expressed an interest in adding a waterfall in order to create a serene and relaxing environment while they sat on their patio or looked out their back window.

Above is the “BEFORE” picture of the Reed’s back yard, while standing on the patio.

The "AFTER" picture above shows the incredible new view from the patio! Serene and inviting.

Harvest Landscape asked questions and listened to the Reed’s ideas. Working together, Harvest created a tiered waterfall, rock stairs that lead to the top of their hill, and a tiered rock structure in which beautiful plants would display a cascading view. With the boulders in place, the waterfall and stairs finished, Harvest employees began work on planting the landscape with beautiful plants. You can see the natural dry creek bed in front of the stone structure, which will divert water from the patio to run alongside the stone structure, thereby creating a system that moves the water away from the house while creating a serene environment. We resolved the drainaige issues and turned a problem into an oasis. As you can see from the pictures below, the Reeds now have a beautiful new landscape they can escape to and enjoy year round.

Harvest created a customized stone stairway, and dug out the side of the hill in order to divert the water draining into the patio.

Harvest was able to create a three-tiered waterfall, which enhances the beauty of their outdoors while creating the wonderful sound of water running.
