Water Gardens
Accent on Landscape specializes in creating natural-setting water gardens. Imagine playful water falls and gently bubbling streams surrounded by lush plantings and aged boulders. Submerged and floating flowering lilies and lotuses share the sparkling water garden with colorful fish. You are surrounded by texture, color, gentle sounds and wonderful fragrances. We specialize in turning this dream water garden into a reality.
Through research and experience, we have chosen a system that will ensure that your water garden will work, and not work you.
Accent on Landscape is dedicated to preparing a water feature design for you that:
| • Is attractive, natural looking and fits into your individual landscaping plans. |
• Is low maintenance and long lasting. |
| • Will increase in beauty over time |
• Will increase in value as it increases in beauty. |
As you begin to think about adding a water feature to your landscaping, here are brief descriptions of the 5 components essential to a successful water garden.
1. Biofalls
Creates an elevated level for your waterfall, filters the water, and provides a place for beneficial bacteria to colonize.
2. Skimmer
Filters floating and other debris, protects the water pump, and provides additional area for bacteria
3. Fish
Keep plantings from becoming overgrown, provides fertilizer, adds color and motion, and an avenue for interaction with your water garden.
4. Plants
Remove nitrogen from the water, release oxygen, provide food and shelter for fish, and add color, texture and fragrance.
5. Gravel
Makes the water garden natural looking, provides a place for the beneficial bacteria to colonize, protects the water garden liner, and provides a place for fish and other creatures to root around and hide.
Accent on Landscape artfully combines all of these elements in producing a beautiful, natural-setting water garden.

Landscape Lighting
Dear homeowner, thank you for the opportunity to design a lighting portrait for your home. Quality outdoor lighting is an important investment that can add value, safety, drama, and enjoyment to your home. Here are a few important facts to keep in mind as you consider outfoor lighting
FACT
Most outdoor lighting equipment is under warranty for 1 to 3 years. Many products installed by Accent on Landscape are covered by a lifetime warranty.
FACT
Most outdoor lighting installers accent the sidewalks and driveways, giving an airport runway appearance and leaving the home in darkness. Accent on Landscape provides a creative lighting solution. We plan our lighting to hide the light source and highlight an area. We utilize many techniques – up lighting, down lighting, silhouette shadow, cross, and graze lighting, various filters, beam spreads, and wattages to achieve the perfect result.
FACT
Many lighting installers lack the knowledge and training to correctly design and install an outdoor lighting system. Correct and even voltage to each fixture and load limits that are within safety standards are crucial factors in quality lighting design and installation.
FACT
Accent on Landscape will demonstrate a night lighting plan with a temporary light installation. This will give you the opportunity to understand the different lights and techniques that will be installed, to evaluate and make changes as needed, and to be satisfied with a final installation.
Converting your home and landscape into your own personal resort through a quality, creative lighting plan will add to the enjoyment of your home for years to come.
Thank you for considering Accent on Landscape for this project.
