LandscapExperts Tip of the Week, April 11

Texture is an element of design referring to the quality of the surface: rough or smooth, soft or hard, glossy or dull. 
In Landscape Design, plant textures may be coarse, like Hosta, Canna or Leatherleaf Mahonia (also called bold). Other plants are fine-textured such as cut-leaf Japanese maple, fern or astilbe, and the contrast between them adds interest to the garden.
