One of the main differences between a private home and 'flats' that the owner is the owner of the adjacent territory.Consequently, its improvement in the literal sense - in his hands.The options are so many, and to recommend any particular "scheme" for a number of reasons why it makes no sense.

First , portions sizes - different, it means that many households to realize the wishes just will not work for quite objective reasons.

Second , this fully applies to the financial capacity of the owners.Some can afford to carry out large-scale work, but someone will have to limit ourselves to only the necessary minimum.

consider all possible options literacy improvement (including, and decorative) of territory, and that it is appropriate for a particular land plot, the reader decides himself.The main thing - to identify "the direction" of thought, everything else - private fantasy.

Where to start? This is perhaps the most difficult question.And it's not what you need to mark territory and to take up the shovel.Does it make sense to align all smooth and if you can use some features of the relief with the greatest benefit for design territory?The same applies to plants, if they are available.
