When choosing landscape shrubs and bushes, the home gardener is often overwhelmed by the range and variety available today. Here are some guidelines for thinking as would a professional designer.
A professional garden designer chooses landscape shrubs and bushes in a certain way, while an inexperienced home gardener chooses them in another. The novice tends to go for plants that he or she has seen and liked in parks, gardens, and nurseries. The landscape architect or garden designer on the other hand, while taking personal preference into account, works according to a set of principles, which unlike other aspects of design, can be readily applied by the average home gardener.

Japanese gardening is a cultural form of gardening that is meant to
produce a scene that mimics nature as much as possible by using trees,
shrubs, rocks, sand, artificial hills, ponds, and flowing water as
art-forms. The Zen and Shinto traditions are both a large part of
Japanese gardening and, because of this; the gardens have a
contemplative and reflective state of mind. Japanese gardening is much
different than the Western style and most would say it is far more
meditational and soul soothing.
