Softscaping refers to the main items that
we often think of when discussing
landscaping: the graceful plants that brighten
our view. Softscape in a landscape
encompasses every tree, flower, shrub,
foliage plant, or ground cover that might be
included to add beauty, color, or texture.
Oftentimes, softscape is added to help soften
the hard lines of hardscape, so that each
element of the landscape design flows
smoothly and effortlessly into the other.
Numerous things can be incorporated into
a softscape, including plants, trees, shrubs,
vines, and groundcovers. Some items may be
fixed, as in the case of evergreen trees and
shrubs which remain consistent year round,
while others are temporary, like annual plants
installed along pathways to add color in the
summer, or bulbs which only bloom for a few
months of the year before dying back.
