Pathway to Private Patio
2012-02-03
A Japanese maple, in Autumn red, gently arches over the curving path and it's foliage creates a dimensional perspective against the vine covered arbor. Altogether this gives a small glimpse of the patio behind and creates landscape interest.

Wide Path
with stone chips
Here is a wide garden path made with stone chips. The path leads to the patio in the back of the building. It certainly is a very serviceable path, for many occasions and jobs, because of its width.
Flagstone and Moss
11-11-09
A lot of paths along the side of the house run in a straight line due to space constraints, but this beautiful flagstone and moss garden path meanders nicely despite the space constraints. The beautiful effervescent lime green of the Moss along with the purple of the Clematis Vine and flowering Hostas are soothing. Lots of great tips on the site link about materials to lay to deter weeds.
Japanese Garden Path
11-10-08
This Japanese pond garden has large stepping stones in the middle of a shaded pond. Beautiful pink Azaleas cascade on either side of the pathway. It is located in the Butchart Gardens, built over 100 years ago on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The serenity and tranquility of these scene is mesmerizing. If you're thinking of landscaping a Japanese garden pathway, then consider adding a Japanese Pond off your path for adding charm and whimsy. Consider adding a Japanese Path Light

Heavenly Stroll among the Lavender
11/10/08
Sometimes the most beautiful garden paths employ only one flower and in this case lavender will send you on a heavenly scented stroll! There's nothing more enchanting than a path bordered on each side by Lavender.
This meandering path is made with stone pavers. Walking along the path you will brush past the scent of the lavender.

Stone Path for Narrow Areas

If you have a narrow space along the house then this garden path design, which was created in a narrow space with flower beds on either side, created a lot of interest in a very small space. The concrete bench becomes the focal point.

Narrow areas don't have to be boring when you use beautiful natural stones to create a unique path.

Do you have a small garden but want it to appear larger, then play illusions with the perceptions of small spaces. For instance, if you widen your path as it goes around a corner, you can make your garden appear much larger.
Gravel Garden Path
2011/04/05
The most economical path is made out of gravel. This enchanting gravel path was created with gravel, with a stone bench that serves as a focal point in addition to the lovely garden.

Japanese Path
Here is a beautiful Japanese path that has a more modern feel created by its angular stone pathways and geometric design. This path design would work well in unlevel areas.
