If you have imagination, sketch it roughly and don't forget to think of levels and drainage. You're almost in the Landscape business.
If you don't have imagination (yet) then get some books from the resources suggestions below, look at the pictures and get some garden design ideas
I label myself as a specialist in exotic garden landscaping. Buying succulent clippings and zeroscaping is my new passion.
Here at Landscaping by Landman we like to have a lot of different Agaves in our plans for exotic garden landscaping as well as Aloe.
In fact we use Aloe quite frequently as it is one of our standbys for exotic garden landscaping. Of course a lot depends on the property. See this cottage style property and immediately my mind says 'wild'. Would you agree?
The Cacti that I use in my exotic garden landscaping include ferocactus latispinus. The Ferocactus latispinus have heavy hooked spines are fascinating to touch. I don’t use this one in exotic garden landscaping at home with children because if you don't use care while touching the ferocactus latispinus, they will rip the flesh clean off your hand. Be sure to take care please.
Another one of the Cacti that I use while I am working on exotic garden landscaping is the trichocereus bridgessii monstrose. This is a rare monstrose form of bridgessii. This Cacti forms numerous cucumber shapes with long spines.
In my exotic Landscaping by Landman business, I also like to use a group of plants in the Crassulacea family. The Crassulacea family has exotic plants in all parts of the world from the hot and dry desert regions to the cold and moist alpine locations.
