This structure is referred to as the "bones". These bones provide the focal points of interest. Some of these bones are living and some are hardscape. They are all usually permanent, and can include evergreen or deciduous trees, ornamental shrubs, hedges, walkways, arbors, fencing, fountains, benches or statuary. Winter is the best time of year to analyze your garden beds because there are no distractions from blooming annuals and perennials. These areas have now become bare. One must simply focus on the entire landscape as a whole. Be sure to include the borrowed views of your neighboring landscapes as they blend in with yours and create an overall vista. From this panorama, you are able to decide what needs to be added or subtracted from your design plan. Evergreens are the obvious bones but deciduous trees and shrubs become skeletons that can provide winter interest.

Visit your local nursery to check out what is available before they leaf out so that you can appreciate these bare essentials. A wonderful selection which is a favorite in my yard is Corylus or otherwise known as "Harry Lauder's Walking Stick. It has sensational gnarled and twisting branches with showy catkins. On a sunny, warm day, walk through your garden and take the time to critique areas that need reassessment—is it different heights, depth, shapes, patterns, or textures that you need to create a more pleasing area? Another important note— remember your seasons. Providing seasonal interest year long is a key element in planning. Maybe a new pathway is in order to improve function for moving from one space to another. Perhaps a water feature would enhance an area and could become the endpoint of a destination or used to welcome guests to you entrance. Gardening is like art. It is your canvas. It is what separates your garden as your space, your own haven. I encourage you to visit your nurseries and speak to the professionals who can answer your questions and maybe even offer some helpful suggestions. Remember be creative and really enjoy your garden.
