Island Bed Design Ideas Adding Interest to Yard Landscaping

An island bed is a unique idea that brings colour, different textures and heights to the landscape. Island beds beautify the garden design and make green lawns more interesting. Here is the Lushome collection with beautiful and creative design ideas. See for yourself how island beds with flowers, shrubs and trees break up the monotony of green lawns and set surprising accents in garden design.

When you decide to build an island bed, there are a few design elements you need to consider: location, shape, size, plant selection, edging materials, and garden decorations to add extra accents. Island beds are designs apart from structures usually surrounded by green lawns. Island beds designed near a corner of a building, at a driveway or along a sidewalk add appeal to the edge of the house and make the garden design look expensive.
