Not every single landscape is perfect and getting a rock garden will help in many of those places. You may have an area which is just too shaded and also you can't have plants due to the fact there just isn't enough sun during the day to help them grow, or you might have an area that has become too dry simply because you're either going through a drought or rain just won't reach it.
Or, maybe you've got an excessive amount of rain and your land is just too soggy to support good vegetation and has now become really swampy. Rock gardens can assist in all of these problem areas and most are really low maintenance.
Great planning can help any novice to rock gardens, but at times a professional's opinion can be the difference between normal and magnificent.
If your land is too rocky, then you can just clear up some of the rock and attempt to arrange what is left in an aesthetically pleasing pattern.
Adding some shallow rooted plants can help break up a huge, rocky area with some green. Or, if the area is too dense with rock, then you could build a border around the location with an artificial border, such as railroad ties - or use tiny plants to trace around it.
A hilly region on your land will make your soil to erode. Placing your garden in a strategic area of the land will prevent the erosion and at the same time adding an excellent lawn decoration. Bringing in rocks indigenous to your location will give the illusion that the garden is much more natural.
An area which is just too dry or maybe has non-fertile soil is another suitable location for a rock garden, and perhaps you should even consider a Japanese rock garden.
This type of a garden makes use of sand and rocks to put patterns into the ground and if you have an extremely dry climate, this will seem intentional despite having a bad spot in your yard.
Shady regions can have a rock garden with plants that thrive in the shade. As opposed to having plants which can be found naturally around rock, you'd take plants that do well in the shade and populate your garden with those. It's an excellent method to expand on the rock garden concept and have a much more personalized decoration.
