Shaping your garden is an exciting exercise that offers a thousand possibilities. It is important to evaluate all the aspects involved in each of the choices. Since some decisions may seem very nice in our head, but then are costly to maintain so that the appearance is as imagined.
Therefore, artificial grass is always a good option. And if we also combine it with decking we will get a spectacular chromatic combination. . Undoubtedly, it is one of the most spectacular and natural looking mixtures. The combination of the fresh green tones of the grass and the dark and cozy tones of the wood, enhance our garden and give it a touch of distinction.
When we consider combining decking with artificial turf, the first thing to do is to decide where and for what purpose we are going to use the decking. One of the most widespread uses is to generate routes in the garden. In this case, apart from the aesthetic value, the decking will fulfill a protective function of the lawn because it will absorb most of the traffic. This will keep the artificial grass in better condition for a longer period of time.
But we can also use decking to create planters to enhance an ornamental shrub or tree.
And where does the secret of this combination lie? Well, above all, in the installation.
We must start by first placing the decking and once perfectly placed install the artificial turf adjusting it to its perimeter. With this order we will avoid that the sawdust or wood shavings fall on the lawn.
On the other hand, the other key aspect of the installation is the height. The ideal is that both the lawn and the platform are at the same height or at a similar height, so that there is no step, and thus not notice unevenness when changing from the platform to the lawn.
A light hose to the garden will be that detail that will give a very natural effect.
Undoubtedly, this will be a combination that will not leave you indifferent.
