Standard red bricks remain a favourite material for landscaping as they can create a variety of effects: strict Victorian uniformity, rustic country invitation, modern industrial design, the list goes on.
Pathways between raised beds are a prime location for weeds to pop up, causing the need for constant attention. A brick path creates a firm place to stand and eradicates the weed problem. Using a different coloured border (perhaps with some grey cobbles or pavers) provides a contrast that creates an attractive effect. If you have enough bricks to allow it, placing them sideways for a border can look really sharp! Retaining walls don’t always have to be made of timber. Classic red brick can create a lovely warm rustic country garden feel. Maintaining a nice sharp lawn edge where it meets the garden bed takes a lot of regular attention. A brick border along a curved edge can create much less maintenance. Brick steps down a sloping path achieves a real permanence, avoiding erosion and degradation of steps over time, as well as looking fantastic! Brick pathways can look incredibly sharp with a herringbone-pattern and sideways brick border. Brick borders around circular beds can create a really attractive effect, adding visual strength to the garden feature. Design possibilities for brick letterboxes are endless, so if you have A LOT of time, consider creating a letterbox that will truly go the distance! Soft ground is the enemy of outdoor furniture, and a brick or cobble base can be the perfect solution to avoid that sinking feeling. We have plenty of curved interlocking cobbles as shown in the picture. Add some serious rustic charm to your garden with a brick birdbath. If you’re serious about composting then you need a serious compost bin, and nothing says serious like a solid brick receptacle! Bricks can serve as an attractive divider between different ground materials. The only limit to what is possible with brick landscaping is your imagination! Bricks are great for planters that can be filled with soil or individual pots.
