Tropical Garden Styles

Tropical garden styles are perfect for homeowners who like a lush and exotic landscape. Include a large terrace for dining with a floating sunshade overhead for protection from the heat. Add natural rattan or bamboo woven furniture such as a dining table, chairs and recliners. Including a water feature that resembles a waterfall is a lovely idea. Movement around the garden can be via winding steppingstones or gravel paths. Dark green dense vegetation is a priority in a tropical garden with staggered planting to create depth and interest. Add vibrant colours with exotic plants or pretty parasols. The in-house design team at Acacia Gardens has created a list of ten tropical garden features you may wish to include.

Contemporary homes are perfect for creating a tropical landscape.
