Stone Wall Foundation For Rose Gardens

Rose gardens and rose garden designs are typically quite stunning on their own, but if you are looking for a spectacular way to make them even more dramatic and stunning, you should consider adding cast stone wall fountains to the mix. These particular types of fountains are quite beautiful, and can really add a lot of beauty to any garden, especially rose gardens which are already stunning all on their own. Because rose gardens are typically filled with so much color, the contrast added by the cast stone fountains can really be an aesthetic improvement.

If you are looking for the right rose garden design and you already know what type of fountains you will be using, then you can essentially base the design of your rose garden on the hardscape elements. It would be stunning, for example, for you to let your roses climb the walls on either side of your water features, to add some drama to the stone or brick walls that your fountains adorn. Can you imagine the dramatic appearance of brightly colored roses climbing over stark outdoor wall fountains? It really would be a stunning sight, and visitors to your rose garden would be absolutely thrilled to see it.

If on the other hand, you have already begun to grow your rose garden and are looking for ways to add cast stone wall fountains to the décor, you may have a little more difficulty because you will have to find fountains that not only fit in with the colors of your rose garden, but you will also have to find ones that work well with the space that you already have. While many people begin with cast stone water features and add other elements like rose bushes later, some people choose their flowers long before hard-scaping elements like fountains, rocks, fences and walls are ever even added.

Many garden designers place trellises, gazebos or arbors that border their rose garden or even place in the center of the rose garden. By using such a design it makes it much easier to find a place to hang outdoor wall fountains in the absence of brick walls or other type of walls and borders that typically border rose gardens.

Cast Stone Wall Fountains and Colors

Rose gardens, by nature, are truly stunning, simply because they involve so much bright color. The people who create rose gardens generally tend to work very hard at cultivating them, growing the perfect roses, pruning the bushes perfectly. Anyone who puts this much energy into a rose garden will understand how absolutely imperative it is to find garden elements that work perfectly in the décor and design of the garden. You do not want your cast stone wall fountains to contrast your rose gardens in the wrong way. You want all of the colors, all of the textures, shapes and design elements to fit together in the perfect way; otherwise you are simply wasting your time and money, exploring design options that might never work.

Finding not only the perfect water features, but also the perfect rose garden designs is really up to you ultimately, because gardening is all about tending to something that you enjoy and are passionate about, rather than simply accepting the advice of a stranger. As long as you understand that choosing outdoor wall fountains has a lot to do with making them blend in with your garden, you will do just fine when it comes to designing your beautiful rose garden around your cast stone water features.
